Number of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL, which include gene expression QTL, geQTL; exon expression QTL, eeQTL and splicing QTL, sQTL) that overlap with genome-wide association study (GWAS) hit regions linked with body composition [28]. The scale of red color represents the number of shared pleiotropic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) between eQTL and GWAS hit regions
