The 22 EA-associated T2D QT loci include 13 fasting glucose, 8 fasting insulin, and 1 associated with both. Substantial reduction is defined as greater than 20% reduction in its genomic length or the number of SNPs.

a

For ease of comparison to previous studies, the loci are named based on the historically identified nearest protein-coding gene or genes to the index SNP in European ancestry.

b

# SNPs is the number of SNPs included in the 99% credible set.

c

Range is defined as the maximum genomic distance based on hg18 among the SNPs included in the 99% credible set.

d

%SNPs is (the number of SNPs in the EA-based 99% credible set − the number of SNPs in the trans-ethnic analysis-based 99% credible set)/the number of SNPs in the EA-based 99% credible set.

e

%Range is (the range of the EA-based 99% credible set − the range of the trans-ethnic analysis-based 99% credible set)/the range of the EA-based 99% credible set.
