HIDECAN - Parameters Description

Select Dataset

Track Selection: - Choose which GWAS, DE, or CAN dataset to visualize - Multiple datasets can be loaded simultaneously - Switch between datasets to compare results

Filter by Chromosome: - Display all chromosomes or select specific ones - Useful for focusing on candidate regions - Reduces visual clutter


Score Thresholds

Significance Cutoff: - Set minimum score for displaying associations - Higher thresholds = more stringent filtering - Default based on significance threshold (e.g., -log10(p-value) > 3) - Interactive slider allows real-time adjustment

HIDECAN plot options

Select: - Colour genes by score? If yes, the points will be coloured according to their score value. If no, all points will be the same colour. - Remove empty chromosomes? If yes, chromosomes with no significant hits will be removed from the plot. If no, all chromosomes will be displayed regardless of significance. - Remove empty traits? If yes, traits with no significant hits will be removed from the plot. If no, all traits will be displayed regardless of significance.
