*Analysis adjusted for age, sex, weight, systolic blood pressure, and diabetes; Chr = chromosome; GWAS = genome-wide association study; LVMI = left ventricular mass index defined as LV mass/height^2.7; LVH = left ventricular hypertrophy defined as LVMI > 47 g/m^2.7 in women and > 50 g/m^2.7 in men; MAF = Overall frequency of carriers of minor allele (homozygotes + heterozygotes); SNP = single-nucleotide polymorphism
