Position (Hg38)	rs-name	Allele (EA/OA)	EAF (%)	Gene/[Locus]	Coding effect	OR (95% CI)	P	P-het	P random effect

Significance levels and effects are shown for the combined analysis. EA effect allele, OA other allele, EAF effect allele frequency, OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, P-het P-value for test of heterogeneity between Iceland, the UK, Denmark, and Finland.
