Below is a Manhattan plot from a GWAS investigating microcirculation (circulation of blood through the smallest blood
vessels). Changes in microcirculation can be correlated to increased risk of cardiovascular events. For our purposes we will
consider the -log10(P) of about 7 as the significance threshold.
