title: GWAS summary statistics for genetically informed cortical phenotypes

description: #Summary statistics from GWAS analyses of 24 genetically informed cortical phenotypes#Including two global measures: total cortical surface area, mean cortical thickness########################################Sample size n=36289 (UK Biobank White-British cohort)

Number of reported SNPs: ~15178763 (Chromosomes 1-22)

########################################GWAS was performed with fastGWA, using a sparse GRM as input as implemented in GCTA: https://cnsgenomics.com/software/gcta/index.html#fastGWA/

Each file contains the following columns:

#CHR       Chromosome#SNP       SNP identifier#POS       Base-pair position#A1           Effect allele (minor allele by default) #A2          Other allele#N            Sample size#AF1         Frequency of A1#BETA      SNP effect#SE          SNP standard error#P             p-value

#The dataset comprises GWAS summary statistics for 50 brain MRI phenotypes: 12 regional measures of cortical surface area and 12 of cortical thickness, each with a version adjusted for the corresponding global measure. It also includes two global measures: total cortical surface area and mean cortical thickness. 

#All brain phenotypes were pre-residualized prior to GWAS to remove the effects of age, sex, scanner, and the top 10 genetic principal components.
