  1. EAF: allele frequency of the primary trait (FG or FI) raising allele from the sex-combined meta-analyses. Per allele effect (SE) for FI represents changes of natural-log transformed levels of this trait. Sex heterogeneity represents the differences in allelic effects between sexes. The Cochran’s Q test (for sex heterogeneity) P value is also shown. Significant P values (Psex-dimorphic < 5 × 10−8, Psex-combined < 5 × 10−8) are highlighted in bold.
  2. FG fasting glucose, FI fasting insulin, Chr chromosome, Pos Position GRCh37.
