The sentences

marginally significantP < 0.05actually significant
While only variants with P < 5 × 10 −8 were considered significant, to also identify suggestive variants for supplementary results, in each clump, index SNPs had a suggestive association based on P < 1×10 −6 , and SNPs were added if they were marginally significant with P < 0.05, were within 500 kb of the index SNP, and had r 2 > 0.1 with the index SNP.
