  1. Data are presented as mean ± S.E
  2. * P < 0.05. Triglyceride (TG) values were transformed to the natural logarithm scale for analysis. Other analyses were conducted without transformation. Data were adjusted for sex, age, and BMI. The percent (%) change of each lipid level due to carrying the risk allele of each SNP was calculated by dividing the mean value of the difference between two genotypes of the SNP by the mean value of the risk allele and multiply the answer by 100
