Why it matters in GWAS

Side-by-side Manhattans are harder to compare base-pair for base-pair; Miami plots make shared peaks, shifted architecture, and pleiotropy patterns visible at a glance when both studies use harmonized builds and variant order.

Example usage

"The Miami plot aligned height and BMI summary statistics, highlighting loci with overlapping signal on chr4."

Node order. The current term is first. Next come every page linked from Related terms, in the same top-to-bottom order as that list. Then new terms appear in two-hop layers: for each of those direct neighbors (in that same order), their related terms are appended if not already listed. A third pass does the same for two-hop nodes. The walk stops when a fixed maximum number of nodes is reached.
