  1. BETA: the effect on the clinical and metabolic traits for each copy of the risk allele (allele C). BETA-adj: the effect on the clinical and metabolic traits for each copy of the risk allele after age and BMI adjustment. P-adj: adjusted P value by age and BMI using logistic regression. FSH: follicle stimulating hormone. LH: luteinizing hormone. T: testosterone.F-GLU: fasting glucose. F-INS: fasting insulin. HOMA-IR: homeostasis model for insulin resistance. CHOL: cholesterol. TG: triglycerides. HDL-C: high density lipoprotein. LDL-C: low density lipoprotein.
