BackgroundThe 9p21.3 locus was the first genome-wide significant signal for coronary artery disease (CAD) and replicates across multiple non-African populations, yet is absent in African ancestry cohorts. We hypothesized that ancestry-specific linkage disequilibrium (LD) and haplotype structure, rather than allele frequency or power alone, explain this discrepancy. MethodsWe analyzed multi-ancestry data from European, East Asian, South Asian, Middle Eastern, African, and Admixed American groups...
