FIG. 2.
Meta-analysis plots for key quantitative traits associated with insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome. Effect sizes for A, C, E, and G: SD change in trait (log10scale) per 1 SD higher BMI (log10 scale) (equal to the correlation coefficient between log10[trait] and log10[BMI]). Effect sizes for B, D, F, and H: SD change in trait (log10 scale) per FTO A allele.
