Fig. 4: Effects of previously identified WHRadjBMI loci on local adiposity traits.
From: Inherited basis of visceral, abdominal subcutaneous and gluteofemoral fat depots
In total, 345 of the 346 index SNPs associated with WHRadjBMI in a recent meta-analysis from the GIANT consortium were available in the studied cohort12. Effect sizes of VATadj, ASATadj, and GFATadj are plotted against the effect size for WHRadjBMI as reported in the cited study (Supplementary Data 11). Betas and p values for VATadj, ASATadj, and GFATadj correspond to the BOLT-LMM association p values computed in this study for the 345 index SNPs.
