Physical positions are listed according to NCBI build 36.3. Beta is the effect size per minor allele based on an additive genetic model. bp = basepairs; Chr = chromosome; Freq = frequency; SE = standard error; SNP = single nucleotide polymorphism.

*

Effect size in mm Hg.

Gene located over 500,000 bp away from the lead SNP.

Lead SNP lays within the corresponding gene.
