<p>SNPs are plotted by association P value of linear mixed models adjusted for age, sex, and principal components of genetic variation for the association between SNP and annual rate of change in albuminuria. and genomic position (NCBI Build 36). The original hit (rs267734) is labeled. The magnitude of linkage disequilibrium (r<sup>2</sup>) between each SNP and rs267734 is indicated by the intensity of the red coloring. Estimates of recombination rates are shown by the blue line. Gene positions are indicated by green arrows. Gene names are labeled. Linkage disequilibrium and recombination rates were estimated from the Utah residents of Northern and Western European ancestry (CEU) HapMap population (release 22). Plots were prepared using SNAP <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0106631#pone.0106631-Laviad1" target="_blank">[22]</a>. Panel A: P values adjusted for rs267734. Panel B: P values not adjusted for rs267734.</p
