  • Each observed variant across six genes in our HCM cases was given supporting (OR >10; Sup.), moderate (OR >20; Mod.) or strong (OR >100; Str.) evidence of pathogenicity based on model predictions from the hotspot and hotspot+ models. The proportion of variants with supporting, moderate or strong evidence are stratified by expert classifications made by Oxford Medical Genetics Laboratory.
