a

UKB, UK Biobank; SD, standard deviation; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; HDL, high-density lipoprotein.

b

P-value was obtained from the interaction term between lipid PGS and fish oil supplementation. Models were adjusted for lipids PGS, fish oil supplementation, sex, age, age2, assessment centers, genotyping array, the top 20 genetic principal components, body mass index, Townsend deprivation index, smoking status, alcohol status, physical activity, and statin use.

c

Models were adjusted for sex, age, age2, assessment centers, genotyping array, and the top 20 genetic principal components.

d

Models were adjusted for sex, age, age2, assessment centers, genotyping array, the top 20 genetic principal components, body mass index, Townsend deprivation index, smoking status, alcohol status, physical activity, and statin use.
