Comparison of effect sizes and the strength of association of all variants that exceeded genome-wide significance at one or more skeletal sites.

(LL-BMD) = lower limb BMD, (UL-BMD) = upper limb BMD, (SK-BMD) = skull BMD, (GENE) = closest gene, (POS) = position in the genome based on hg18, (EA) = effect allele, (β) = estimates of effect size expressed as adjusted SD per copy of the effect allele (EA), (CI-L) = lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for β, (CI-U) = upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for β, (P) = P-value.*Please note that PTHLH is also found in the 12p.11.22 locus containing KLHDC5, RSPO3 is also found in the 6q.22.32 locus containing CENPW, TNFRSF11B is also located at the 8q.24.12 locus containing COLEC10, LGR4 is also located at the 11p.14.1 locus containing LIN7C and LRP5 is also located at the 11q13.2 locus containing PPP6R3. FAM3C and CPED1 are also located at the 7q.31.31 locus containing WNT16.
