Notes: p Values are for the inverse variance–weighted meta-analysis. Distances to genes are given in base pairs. Position is for NCBI Build 36. ORs are for each additional minor allele. Number of supporting SNPs: The number of SNPs within 500 kb of the top SNP that are in LD with the top SNP in the HapMap CEU release 22 (r2 ≥ .10) and have association p < .05. For imputed and direction, study-specific information is presented in the order: Age, Gene/Environment Susceptibility-Reykjavik Study, Rotterdam Study, FHS, CHS, Leiden, and Denmark. Direction: + = minor allele increases odds of survival more than 90; − = minor allele decreases odds of survival; ? = not tested. CEU = Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain European Ancestry; CHARGE = Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology; CHS = Cardiovascular Health Study; FHS = Framingham Heart Study; LD = linkage disequilibrium; MAF = minor allele frequency; OR = odds ratio; SNPs = single-nucleotide polymorphisms.
