The regression uses weights that are inversely proportional to the probability that a person will be included in the regression. Standard errors and P values are empirically determined based on 10,000 simulations. The estimated effects presented here are statistical; they do not imply causation, as the results could be a consequence of the H2 chromosomes being correlated with some unknown functional variant(s).
