  1. FBS fasting blood sugar, SBP systolic blood pressure, IV instrument variant, S.E. standard error, IVW inverse variance weighted, MR mendelian randomization
  2. *The only one overlapped instrumented variant in both directions
  3. Effect (S.E.) per genetically determined FBS value (mg/dL) 1-SD increasing or SBP value (mmHg) 1-SD increasing; Due to the characteristics of genetic data in Korea, the FBS value in mg/dL units was used for these analyses
