Abbreviations: SNP = single nucleotide polymorphism, HOMA-IR: Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance. Results are derived from age-, sex-, BMI-adjusted regression models. SNPs position according to Hap Map data Rel 24/phase II Nov 08, dbSNP b126. SNP rs6928813 was not included in the statistical analysis, as its observed genotype frequencies deviated from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) (P<0.001).

The β estimates reflect the additive effect of the risk allele on the log-transformed outcome. Nominal P values are uncorrected for multiple testing. To determine the distribution of the minimum P value across all SNPs under the null hypothesis of no association, we simulated 1,000 traits for our sample, as an approach to correct for the multiple SNPs tested. The empirical P values correspond to the proportion of simulated minimum P values smaller or equal to the observed nominal P values in our data. An empirical P value <0.05 denotes statistical significance (see text for details).
