Top lead SNP in genomic risk loci associated with coronary artery calcification quantity at a significance level of P < 5 × 10−8 for the combined-ancestry meta-analysis (up to 35,776 individuals from 22 studies). SNP effect sizes (Beta) and two-sided P−values (PMETA) were derived from weighted Z−scores in fixed effects model and central association P−values determined from chi-square test statistics. rsID, rsID of the lead SNP. Lead SNP chromosome (Chr) and position (Pos) are provided in hg19/b37 and hg38. Effect/Other allele indicates the effect and other (non-effect) allele. EAF, effect allele frequency. Effect, effect size. SE, standard error of the effect. Pmeta, P−value of association of the lead SNP with CAC after multi-ancestry meta-analysis. I2, heterogeneity statistic indicating the variation between CAC quantity across the studies, expressed as a percent. Phet, P−value of the heterogeneity test; P > 0.05 is indicative of study homogeneity for a given SNP. Nearest gene(s), nearest gene upstream or downstream and nearest protein-coding gene(s) to lead SNP, with distance to canonical TSS for intergenic SNPs or intronic with equidistant protein-coding genes. Annotation, functional annotation of lead SNP.

a

Reported is either the gene that overlaps with the SNP or the nearest gene(s) up- and downstream of the sentinel variant (separated by a comma).
