* This SNP is monomorphic in population of European descent. Another SNP, rs7611945_A, 231,689 bp upstream of rs11924165 was statistically significant (β(SE) = −4.68 (1.32); p = 4.25 × 10−4; MAF = 20 %) after adjusting for the number of SNPs in between (N = 97) or the number of LD blocks (N = 20)

† Another variant in SDK2 gene, rs11869008_G, located 140,506 bp downstream of rs9889955 was statistically significant (β(SE) = −2.79 (0.84); p = 9.66 × 10−4; MAF = 19.7 %) after adjusting for the number of LD blocks in YRI (N = 25) but not after adjusting for the number of genotyped SNPs (N = 63)
