Other SNPs in the FADS1 and FADS2 genes also reached the GWAS level of significance even after adjustment for sex, age, and diabetes (FADS1-rs174550, p = 5.35 × 10−14; FADS2-rs1535, p = 5.85 × 10−14; FADS1-rs174546, p = 6.72 × 10−14; FADS2-rs174546, p = 9.75 × 10−14; FADS2- rs174576, p = 1.17 × 10−13; FADS2-rs174577, p = 1.12 × 10−12). This evidence concerns the gene FADS1 and diabetes mellitus.
