Table 4. Association results between 14 traits and their corresponding top SNPs, where top SNPs were selected based on multi-study meta-analyses, and z-statistics for Average and SHAVE are based on three visits and results of SardiNIA GWAS.

The z-statistics are shown in order for visit 1 (z1), visit 2 (z2), Average (zAVG) and SHAVE (zSHAVE). In the next four columns their corresponding ranks within each trait are shown, where 1 is assigned to the most significant and 4 to the least. On the last row, we have the averages of the ranks for each metric. *The original SNPs (which were replaced by proxy SNPs from the Metabochip) are: cholesterol (total) rs629301 (R2=1.00), LDL rs629301 (R2=1.00), QT-interval rs2880058(R2=0.92), transferrin rs3811647(R2=0.96) and uric acid rs734553(R2=0.80).
