S2 and Figure 1). Imputation scores for this SNP ranged from 0.98 to 1.0. This region has not previously been identified in association with adiposity phenotypes. Table 2 shows the results for rs1659258 across the abdominal adiposity traits in our meta-analysis. We observed no association in men (p = 0.75) for VAT. In women, we observed a nominally-significant signal for SAT in women (p = 0.002), and for VAT-adjusted-for-BMI (p = 6.9*10E-05). Figure 2 shows the standardized beta coefficients in women as compared to men for all traits in each contributing study.
