Genetic correlations (rg) between ALMadj and 51 traits and diseases were estimated. LD score regression tested for genome-wide SNP associations in these participants against similar data for various other traits and diseases, including musculoskeletal system, anthropometric, obesity, cognition, metabolism, psychiatry, reproduction and neuropsychiatric outcome traits. Error bars represent the standard errors of these estimates. Blue bars represent significant positive correlations at the nominal level of p < 0.05; pink bars represent significant negative correlations (p < 0.05); grey bars represent nonsignificant correlations.
