Hello Yongsheng Bai,

	The tracks that you are looking at contain genome-wide association 
data.  Unlike many of our other tracks that annotate specific parts 
[start - stop] of the genome, these two tracks simply assign a value to 
certain points in the genome.  They are meant to be viewed from a more 
zoomed-out viewpoint.  You can use our Genome Graphs tool to view them 
(choose 'Genome Graphs' from the navigation bar on the left side of the 
home page).  Genome Graphs is a tool for displaying genome-wide data 
sets such as the results of genome-wide SNP association studies, linkage 
studies and homozygosity mapping.

	Specifically, the Case Control Consortium tracks display the trend 
p-values (-log10) of the seven diseases reported by The Wellcome Trust 
Case Control Consortium.  Reported p-values were taken for each of the 
Illumina550 probes on the genome. For visualization purposes, these 
p-values were logged and negated.  For more details see the CCC website: 
  http://www.wtccc.org.uk/

	Likewise for the NIMH tracks: http://nimhgenetics.org/

	I hope this information is helpful to you.  Please don't hesitate to 
contact the mail list again if you require further assistance.

Regards,

----------
