At the most, this variant is only in a weak LD with two other variants, namely rs11773845 and rs926198, associated with MetS by previously researchers as enumerated below: The CAV1 rs11773845 was found to be consistently associated with high serum TG and MetS in Latin Americans (Mora-García et al., 2018), and the CAV1 rs926198 was found to be correlated with MetS in Caucasians and Hispanics (Baudrand et al., 2015). The gene discussed is CAV1; the disease is metabolic syndrome.
