Fig. 3

Genome-wide genetic correlations between early-life head circumference and adult traits and diseases. On the x axis the traits and diseases are shown. The y-axis shows the genetic correlations (Rg) and corresponding standard errors, indicated by error bars, between early-life head circumference and each trait, estimated by LD score regression. The genetic correlation estimates (Rg) are colored according to their intensity and direction. Red indicates a positive correlation, blue indicates a negative correlation.
