With increasing imputation accuracy and the inclusion of variants with MAF down to 0.1% (for EUR), genome-wide significant variants were identified using a threshold of P < 5 × 10−9, to account for approximately 10 million independent tests. The threshold was chosen based on previous work on low-frequency variants5,46,47. All statistical tests are two-sided unless otherwise stated.
