The estimates represent the change in bone Z-scores per additional hour per day spent physically active, by rs2887571 genotype.

a

Risk allele was associated with lower bone mineral density in a genome-wide association study of adults(20).

b

Discovery: Analyses involving participants in the longitudinal discovery cohort using linear mixed models; Replication: Analyses involving participants in the cross-sectional replication cohort using linear regression; Both: Analyses involving participants in the discovery and replication cohorts using linear mixed models; all models were adjusted for age, puberty stage, body mass index Z-score, and dietary calcium intake (gender was included as a covariate in the male and females combined analyses; older sibling was removed for the male and female combined analyses). P-interactions in bold survive correction for multiple testing for 67 independent loci. Abbreviations: F, female; M, male; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism; TB, total body less head bone mineral content.
