highly significantP = 1.7 × 10 −40
The PSs for TG (30 SNPs), LDL-C (28 SNPs), and HDL-C (60 SNPs) explained a relatively small, but highly significant, proportion of the variance (5.6 % [F = 157, P = 1.7 × 10 −40 ], 3.1 % [F = 99, P = 6.2 × 10 −27 ] and 5.1 % [F = 164, P = 1.1 × 10 −36 ]; Additional file 6 ) and were not associated with confounders (Additional file 7 ) with the exception of the HDL-C PS, which was associated with confounder neutrophil counts ( P value = 1.8 × 10 −2 ).
