a

Assumed increased disease risk of 1.5 with EAS ancestry at the disease locus.

b

LD presents in EAS and EUR for a few adjacent marker pairs, ++ denotes strong LD (r2 >0.5), + denotes moderate LD (r2 >0.2), and - denotes weak or no LD (r2 <0.2).

c

False-positive results are indicated by genome-wide LOD score in control-only study, + denotes false-positive results (global LOD >0) present, and - denotes no false-positive results (global LOD <0).. Local and global LOD scores were averaged across ten control-only simulations and ten case-control simulations.
