The models were adjusted for age, gender, center, body mass index and first 10 principal components. Direction of SNPs contributing gene-based analysis inside parentheses. Plus means increase, minus means decrease compared to common alleles (additive model). E/A ratio, the ratio of left ventricular transmitral early velocity to late/atrial velocity. LAD, left atrial dimension. LVIDD, left ventricular internal dimension-diastole. LVM, left ventricular mass. E/A ratio, LVIDD and LVM were natural log-transformed. LAD was square-rooted. MB, the Madsen-Browning weighted burden test. SKAT, the sequence kernel association test. VT, the variable frequency threshold test. MAF, minor allele frequency.
