1 28 SNPs from [18] were tested for BMI, 16 SNPs from [20] were tested for CRP, 67 SNPs from [19] were tested for HDLc, and 180 SNPs from [17] were tested for height.

2 In the unadjusted analysis, traits were not adjusted for candidate SNPs.

3 In the adjusted analysis, traits were first adjusted for candidate SNPs associations.

4 P-values were obtained from 1,000 permutations.
