Variable | Gene | SNP | P-value | P-value corrected for multiple testing | Beta-coefficient | 95% CI |
Fasting blood glucose level (Logarithmic) a | Per2 | #10870 | 0.002 | 0.049 | -0.010 | -0.016–-0.035 |
Variable | Gene | SNP | P-value | P-value corrected for multiple testing | Odds ratio | 95% CI |
High blood pressure b | Npas2 | rs11541353 | 0.001 | 0.02 | 0.54 | 0.37–0.79 |
High blood pressure or hypertension medication c | Npas2 | rs11541353 | <0.001 | 0.015 | 0.53 | 0.36–0.77 |
Single SNPs were analyzed using linear regression for continuous variables and logistic regression for dichotomous variables. Betacoefficients were calculated for continuous variables, odds ratios for dichotomous variables. The sex and age were controlled for these analyses. P-values corrected for multiple testing were calculated.
a) The concentrations of blood glucose (mmol/L) after fasting at least 4 hours and without drinking on the same day. The variable was log-transformed to obtain the normal distribution.
b) The blood pressure was defined high when systolic pressure was 140 mmHg or higher or diastolic pressure was 90 mmHg or higher.
c) High blood pressure (b) or treatment for previously diagnosed hypertension.
