CAD coronary artery disease, Chr chromosome, EA effect allele, EAF effect allele frequency, SE standard error, SNP single-nucleotide polymorphism

^aBeta coefficients and standard errors were obtained from genome-wide association studies on serum magnesium (23,829 individuals) [22] and CAD (60,801 cases and 123,504 non-cases) [23]

^bAllele associated with higher serum magnesium levels

^cFrequency of the magnesium-raising allele in the magnesium genome-wide association study [22]

^dLog odds ratio of CAD for each additional magnesium-increasing allele

^eProxy (rs10858938; r² = 0.96 in European descent individuals) was used in the CAD data
