Forty-four WHR_adjBMI loci showing significant sex-differences.

Chr: Chromosome; Pos: position; EAF: Effect Allele Frequency; EA: Effect allele; OA: Other allele a ‘Yes’ if the locus is mentioned as WHRadjBMI locus for the first time b ‘Yes’ if the sex-difference in the effect on WHRadjBMI is reported for the first time c Effect allele is according to the WHRadjBMI increasing allele according to the associated sex. The table shows the sex-specific (age-group combined) results, ordered by largest, positive effect in women to largest, negative effect in women. The age- and sex-specific results (four strata), more detailed information on the loci and on the screens for which they were detected are given in S5 Table.
