From: A meta-analysis of two high-risk prospective cohort studies reveals autism-specific transcriptional changes to chromatin, autoimmune, and environmental response genes in umbilical cord blood

Fig. 2

Chromatin and autoimmune gene sets are upregulated in cord blood from ASD subjects. Meta-analysis log2(fold change) for ASD versus TD gene expression was used to rank probes for gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) with WebGestalt. GSEA assesses whether genes in biologically defined sets occur toward the top or bottom of a ranked list more than expected by chance. Significantly enriched gene sets are shown (FDR q < 0.05)
