The UGT1A1 interaction network generated using the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis.
<p>The molecular relationships connecting UGT1A1 to DNA metabolism synthesis, fragmentation and quantity of DNA are indicated with Fx symbols, and the associated Canonical Pathways are indicated with CP symbols.

Scatterplot of serum lipoprotein longitudinal profiles of participants according to their sex and wGRSs status (High and Low wGRS*) (N = 2435, N = 2308 and N = 2435 for LDL-C-, HDL-C- and triglyceride profiles respectively).
<p>Solid and dotted lines represent estimated sex-specific average age-related lipid trajectories for participants in High and Low genetic risk score, respectively (i.e. prototypical growth curves); grey bands around the growth curves represent approximated 95% prediction CI. Overlaid with the prototypical lipid trajectories are the age-specific cut points for lipoprotein status (normal vs. high risk) as defined by the NCEP adolescent and childhood classification [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0146081#pone.0146081.ref036" target="_blank">36</a>] and NCEP adult-treatment panel guidelines [<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0146081#pone.0146081.ref037" target="_blank">37</a>]). The cut points are represented in grey/white blocks, used to identify those at significantly increased risk of developing atherosclerotic CVD in adulthood. * Mid wGRS risk group are not presented on the figure for the purpose of readability.</p
Age- and sex- stratified estimated effects of LDL-C wGRS (upper panel), HDL-C wGRS (middle panel) and TG wGRS (lower panel) on LDL-C, HDL-C and triglycerides levels respectively with color coded significance levels and studentized bootstrapped non-parametric 95% CI.
<p>For each age, the continuous error bars correspond to males and the dashed error bars directly next to them correspond to female models. Effect sizes are in mmol/L change per 1-sd change in wGRS for LDL-C and HDL-C and in odds ratio lipoprotein level change per 1-sd change in wGRS for triglycerides. Point sizes of the beta estimates reflect sample size (number of participants included in each age- and sex-specific regression analysis) Parameter estimates significance: Lightgrey, 0.05-3-6; Black, p-val≤1.X10<sup>-6</sup>. Black lines: smooth trend curves fitted by LOESS (Locally weighted non-parametric regression) to help visualise trends in the cross-sectional associations.</p
Sex-specific marginal effect* and 95% CI of (A) combined continuous HDL-C wGRS on HDL-C levels (effect size expressed in mmol/L lipoprotein level change per 1-sd change in wGRSs); and (B) combined continuous TG wGRS on fasting triglyceride levels (effect size expressed in odds ratio lipoprotein level change per 1-sd change in wGRSs).
<p>Colour code: dark grey; females, light grey; males. (*Plotted marginal effect includes the significant linear slope, quadratic and quartic rates of change (cubic trajectory parameter not significant in the final model); Horizontal black dashed line shows where the slopes are not significantly different from zero).</p

Results of mixed models with age as a categorical predictor and log-insulin as a continuous predictor: LS means contrasts (No adult T2DM vs. adult T2DM) and significance at each age averaged over- (Table S1.) or adjusted for the levels of sex (Table S2.) and pairwise comparisons of Least-square means of BMI and 95% CIs at each age in each T2DM status group averaged over levels of sex (Figure S1.) at each age in each T2DM status group and sex group combination (M = males, F-females, 1 = No adult T2DM, 2 = adult T2DM) (Figure S2.) and adjusted for log(insulin).
