* There were 415 Metabolic Traits and 14 CVD Events from which these descriptive statistics were calculated using the # SNPs indicated. # SNPs = average number of SNPs across all traits in the Trait Group; Mean = average proportion of SNPs below nominal level across phenotypes in the trait group; Min = minimum proportion below nominal level across phenotypes in the trait group; Max = maximum proportion below nominal level across phenotypes in the trait group.
