Results are based on linear (or logistic, in the case of COPD) regression adjusting for sex, age, age2, ancestry-based principal components, genotyping array and, in the case of lung function and COPD, standing height. The heterozygote (Het) or recessive (Rec) genetic model was also included in the regression as shown. FEV1: forced expiratory volume in 1 s; FVC: forced vital capacity; GOLD: Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease. #: spirometrically defined as FEV1/FVC <0.7 and FEV1<80% predicted; : defined as FEV1/FVC <0.7.
