After Bonferroni correction, we found that two MUC1 variants, rs4072037 and rs12411216, were significantly associated with waist circumference, systolic blood pressure, hemoglobin A1C, renal functional parameters (blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine levels, and estimated glomerular filtration rate), albuminuria, hematocrit, hemoglobin, red blood cell count, serum uric acid level, and gout risk, with both favorable and unfavorable effects. The gene discussed is MUC1; the disease is gout.
