SNAP (for SNP Annotation and Proxy Search, https://archive.broadinstitute.org/mpg/snap/ldsearch.php) was used to characterize the regional association plot for the interesting genes [40]. The LD between the putative causal SNP and other SNPs were calculated by using HapMap 2 CEU as a reference panel.
