  1. In each cell the top line lists the p-values and the values in parentheses give the corresponding ranks. Results are computed using nonsynonymous rare variants (before slash) or all rare variants (after slash). Power is the replicability across 200 simulations using the WS method. Genes are sorted by their p-values in the WS method using nonsynonymous rare variants.
