†: P values for GWAS cohorts are Mantel-Haenszel meta-analysis GC corrected according to the set λ and in the replication and combined analysis Mantel-Haenszel meta-analysis P value.
*Association in rs11171747 had a significant BD P value, thus making it heterogeneous association among populations.
