  1. A total of 3,504 cases and 861,198 controls from FinnGen, Estonian Biobank and UK Biobank were included in the meta-analysis. A Bonferroni-corrected two-sided genome-wide p-value threshold of 5×10−8 was used to establish significance, accounting for multiple comparisons. For all loci, the nearest protein-coding gene is shown. RNA and antisense genes overlapping the lead variant are additionally shown in parentheses. In addition to the 27 lead variants from the meta-analysis, data (in italic) are presented for the frameshift variant rs753138805 in MEPE which was observed only in FinnGen and was not included in the meta-analysis. The p-value for Cochran’s Q test and the I2 statistic are reported for each lead variant. Chr chromosome, EA effect allele, EAF effect allele frequency, NEA non-effect allele, OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval.
