Among these latter deletions, four are in linkage with SNPs related to metabolic/inflammatory diseases (Type 2 diabetes, alanine transaminase levels, urate levels), four others link with GWAS traits related to heart, cardiovascular or hematological conditions (myocardial infarction, hemorrhoidal disease, red-cell width) and two variants link to colorectal cancer traits. Here, GPT is linked to hemorrhoid.
