  1. The top two colocalization results are presented for each outcome trait of interest (BMI, SBP, DBP, HDL, LDL, TG, T2D, & CAD). BMI, body mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; DBP, high density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDL, low density lipoprotein cholesterol; TG, triglyceride; T2D, type 2 diabetes; CAD, coronary artery disease; PPFC, posterior probability of colocalization; PPE, proportion of PPFC explained by the listed SNP.
  2. *Shore is region from 1 to 2 Kb away from a CpG island and shelf is located at 2–4 Kb from a CpG island. Prefixes N_ and S_ represent north (i.e., upstream) and south (i.e., downstream) regions relative to a CpG island.
  3. TSS, transcription start site.
