  1. 1The "European Americans" heritability analysis was performed using 389,360 SNPs and 8,515 European Americans from the ARIC and MESA studies.
  2. 2The "European Americans (not using antihypertensive medications)" heritability analysis was performed using 389,360 SNPs and 6,372 European Americans from the ARIC study.
