These files contain the ancestry-specific (METAL) and trasethnic (MANTRA) HbA1c meta-analysis results. 

For more information please check Wheeler E, Leong A et al. PLOS Medicine. (2017)

Allele frequencies are from HapMap: ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/hapmap/frequencies/2009-02_phaseII+III/forward/non-redundant/

--------------------------------
Ancestry-specific METAL results:
--------------------------------

HbA1c_METAL_ANCESTRY.txt.gz, where ancestry is: European, AfricanAmerican, EastAsian or SouthAsian. 
Note - results have been double-GC corrected.

The columns in these files represent:

snp		SNP ID
chr		chromosome (NCBI build 36)
pos		position (NCBI build 36)
effect_allele		Effect allele
other_allele		Other (non-effect) allele
eaf_hapmap_pop		Frequency of A1 in HapMap rel 27 [pop: CEU (European results), YRI (African American results), CHB (East Asian results), GIH (South Asian results] 
beta		beta coefficient (effect size)
stderr		Standard error of beta coefficient
pvalue		p-value for testing effect size = 0

---------------------------
Transethnic MANTRA results:
---------------------------

HbA1c_MANTRA.txt.gz, MANTRA HbA1c meta-analysis results (combined European, African American, East Asian and South Asian results)

The columns in these files represent:	
snp		SNP id
chr		chromosome (NCBI build 36)
pos		position (NCBI build 36)				
allele1		Allele 1
allele2		Allele 2
log10bf		log10 Bayes' factor for evidence of association
