Table 2 Descriptive Statistics for the genomic variants associated with Prostate Cancer. Significant tagSNPs shows the number of tagSNPs that were found to be significantly associated with Prostate Cancer at the significance threshold applied by the corresponding study (also shown in the table). Significant tagSNPs+LD shows the total number of these significant SNPs and the number of SNPs that are in linkage disequilibrium with these SNPs, but were not screened by the corresponding study
