nrTEs that yielded nominally significant tests (pval < 0.05) at least for allele and/or genotype frequencies were considered as putatively associated with schizophrenia.

Then, in order to strengthen the potential association between genomic markers (nrTEs) and the investigated trait (schizophrenia), in addition to performing standard allele frequency-based association methods, we also applied haplotype-based analyses, which, as expected, yielded [ 78 ] highly significant results with a magnitude pval ≤ 10 −5 .
