For each SNP (single-nucleotide polymorphism) two alleles are reported with two alleles REF (reference allele) and ALT (alternative allele). So for example, at this SNP rs671 the REF allele is G and the ALT allele is A. The browser also provides effect sizes and standard errors for each SNP tested against each phenotype. In all studies, the effect allele is the ALT allele. The SNP effect sizes refer to the change in phenotype (quantitative traits) or log-odds (binary traits) corresponding to possession of an additional copy of the ALT allele.
Due to national regulations, a formal application for the individual-level datasets to the Taiwan Biobank has to be submitted and approved prior to obtaining GWAS summary statistics. For relevant information, kindly refer to our website.

The Biobank Japan (BBJ) is a prospective genome biobank managed by the Institute of Medical Science, the University of Tokyo. It has collaboratively collected DNA and serum samples from 12 medical institutions across Japan. The project has recruited approximately 260,000 participants, mainly of Japanese ancestry. All study participants were diagnosed with one or more of 51 target diseases.
