Group Explained variance (%)
[IC 0.025–0.975]
P
FHTG 1.78 [0.45–4.47] < 2.2 × 10−16
CHTG 6.73 [0.47–9.56]

IC from bootstrapped R-squared of models performing linear regression of TG levels on polygenic scores. The polygenic risk score was computed using the complete set of 38 known TG associated variants. P value of the comparison between the variance explained in FHTG versus CHTG
