What do the duplicated lines in burden test with covariates output mean ?

Open marlenebrs opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

I performed a CMC Wald burden test on my phenotype "EP" adjusted on 6 covariates : sex, AGE, PC1, PC2, PC3 and BMI. My output shows for each gene 7 duplicated lines. What does each line mean? Does a line correspond to a fit on all covariates?

Here is a part of my output :
