Genotype-specific trait values are shown as mean (SD) adjusted for age, sex, and BMI (except in the case of BMI). The interaction P value is Bonferroni-corrected for 30 tests, as described in research design and methods.

*

Genetic model assumed for HNF4A rs2144908 in the interaction with PPARG2. PPARG2 Pro12Ala was assumed to follow a dominant genetic model for Ala.
