Ninety-seven SNPs originally selected; two SNPs failed genotyping; two were out of Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, at P < .001; and one was eliminated because frequency in sample did not match that of phased haplotypes for imputation; therefore, a total of 92 SNPs were included in pathway analysis.

P values were calculated using a logistic kernel machine model and were two-sided.
