The index SNPs are from Heid et al, Nature Genetics 2010 [17]. Note that Tables 3 and 4 show different information for the same loci ( Table 3 for index SNP and Table 4 for best SNPs with the smallest p-value).

1

effect allele/other allele.

2

effect allele frequency.

3

number of independent (typed) SNPs interrogated in AA sample.

4

Bonferroni p-value threshold (0.05/N3).

5

HapMAP LD information.

6

one-side test p-value.

7

P2GC: double GC-corrected p-value.
