  1. Chr chromosome, SNP single nucleotide polymorphism, eQTL expression quantitative locus, P p value, FDR false discovery rate
  2. aFor significant eQTLs where different probes detected the same transcript, only the result for the most significant probe is included in the table
  3. bFor rs7574865 no other genes in the region have been reported; for rs4938573 a cis-eQTL effect was reported for TREH in liver and for AP002954.6 in the tibial nerve and the thyroid gland (GTeX, [36])
