CI: confidence interval; SNPs: single nucleotide polymorphisms; FCHL: familial combined hyperlipidemia.
All frequencies <0.03 have been ignored in analysis. Loci chosen for hap-analysis: rs1128977, rs2651860, rs2134095, rs283696, and rs10918169.
The number of chromosomes valid for analysis is reported in parentheses (312 out of 384 chromosomes for the 192 FCHL affected and 156 out of 238 chromosomes for the 119 controls). Global is 18.905838 while df = 8. Fisher’s value is 0.015506; Pearson’s value is 0.015371.
