Lp(a) values in the carriers of the various combinations of R21X and rs41272114. No significant difference is observed between heterozygous individuals carrying only rs41272114 and those carrying both R21X and rs41272114. “+” indicates a minor allele. Rs41272114 is reported as genotypes, while for R21X, only carrier status (+ or −) is reported because most KIV-2 repeats still carry the wild-type base at any time, and thus, no narrow-sense genotype can be defined. No individuals homozygous for rs41272114 but wild type for R21X were observed in KORA F4. Note that the R21X-only group contains very few individuals in each population. p values assessed by the Wilcoxon test
