3 Figure 2 Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms at LRP5 with bone mineral density in the lumbar spine (A) Negative log p values for associations between the SNP, rs , and bone mineral density are plotted against chromosomal position. (B) Annotated reference sequence genes by chromosomal position (according to the US National Centre for Biotechnology Information). (C) Linkage disequilibrium in GOLD heatmap Haploview 4.0 colour scheme.29 SNP rs represents data from all cohorts. Details of all SNPs are in webtable 3.

4 Figure 3 Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms near the osteoprotegerin gene (TNFRSF11B) and bone mineral density at lumbar spine (A) Negative log p values for associations between the SNP, rs , and bone mineral density are plotted against chromosomal position. (B) Annotated reference sequence genes by chromosomal position (according to the US National Center for Biotechnology Information). (C) Linkage disequilibrium in GOLD heatmap Haploview 4.0 colour scheme.29 SNPs rs , rs , and rs represent data from all cohorts. Details of all SNPs in this figure are in webtable 3.

5 Figure 4 Bone mineral density and number of risk alleles at TNFRSF11B (rs ) and LRP5 (rs ) Bone mineral density at (A) lumbar spine and (B) femoral neck. Vertical bars represent standard errors. p value is from the non-parametric trend test. The data represent all cohorts studied.
