11 Supplementary Note Clinical ascertainment and description of study populations Japanese population We have been conducting a district-based survey named the Osaka Acute Coronary Insufficiency study (OACIS) 21 to assess the clinical variables, therapeutic procedures and consequent clinical events in patients with MI in the Osaka area. Both cohorts used in this study comprised of patients who were admitted to 25 collaborating hospitals within one week of onset. The diagnosis of definite MI required two of the following three criteria: (1) a clinical history of central chest pressure, pain, or tightness lasting for 30 min or more, (2) ST-segment elevation greater than 0.1 mv in at least one standard or 2 precordial leads, and (3) a rise in serum creatine kinase concentration to greater than twice the normal laboratory value. For first cohort, patients (n = 2,475) were recruited between April 1998 and December The clinical characteristics are the following; mean age: 63.9 ± 10.1, gender (male %): 77.6, hypertension (%): 52.8, smoking (%): 65.7, past history of MI (%): 11.8, body mass index (kg/m2): 23.7 ± 3.4, HbA1c (%): 6.2 ± 1.4, total cholesterol (mg/dl): ± 34.7, HDL cholesterol (mg/dl): 38.9 ± 11.1, and triglyceride (mg/dl): ± For second cohort, patients (n = 862) were recruited between January 2004 and December The clinical characteristics are the following; mean age: 64.1 ± 11.0, gender (male %): 79.8, hypertension (%): 58.8, smoking (%): 65.7, past history of MI (%): 12.3, body mass index (kg/m2): 23.9 ± 3.4, HbA1c (%): 5.9 ± 1.2, total cholesterol (mg/dl): ± 35.2, HDL cholesterol (mg/dl): 37.1 ± 9.7, and triglyceride (mg/dl): ± Control population for first cohort (n = 2,778) were recruited from several medical institutes in Japan; mean age (year) and gender (male %) were 53.4 ± 18.4 and 28.0, respectively. For second cohort, they (n = 1,113) were from other distinct medical institutes in Japan; mean age (year) and gender (male %) were 49.5 ± 15.4 and 74.3, respectively. All subjects were Japanese and provided written informed consent to participate in the study, or their parents gave them when they were under 20 years old, according to the process approved by the Ethical Committee at Center for Genomic Medicine, RIKEN.

12 Taiwanese population The diagnosis of MI in the Taiwanese samples was based on two of the following three conditions (1) A documented history of myocardial infarction, (2) Pathological Q wave over EKG [any Q wave in leads V1 through V3, Q wave to 30 ms (0.03 s) in leads I, II, avl, avf, V4, V5, or V6. (The Q wave changes must be present in any two contiguous leads, and be to 1 mm in depth.)], or (3) Markers of myocardial cell death recovered from blood samples [maximal concentration of troponin T (> 0.1) or I (> 0.4) exceeding the decision limit] on at least one occasion during the first 24 h after the index clinical event. The 349 MI subjects were recruited at the Kaohsiung Medical University at the two intervals (from 2001 to 2004 and from 2006 to 2008). The clinical characteristics are as follows: mean age: 62.1 ± 13.1, gender (male %): 75.3, hypertension (%): 61.8, body mass index (kg/m 2 ): 25.3 ± 3.5, HbA1c: 7.8 ± 1.9, total cholesterol (mg/dl): ± 45.1, HDL cholesterol (mg/dl): 37.2 ± 10.9, LDL cholesterol (mg/dl): ± 39.5, triglyceride (mg/dl): ± 129.0, and uric acid (mg/dl): 6.6 ± 2.0. The control subjects (n=994) were stroke- and MI-free volunteers who participated in the health screening program conducted by the medical staff from Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital between January 2006 and December The clinical characteristics for the controls are as follows: mean age: 55.7 ± 12.8, sex (male%): 42.4, hypertension (%): 27.2, body mass index (kg/m 2 ): 24.5 ± 3.6, total cholesterol (mg/dl): ± 36.1, HDL cholesterol (mg/dl): 56.8 ± 14.1, LDL cholesterol (mg/dl): ± 34.0, triglyceride (mg/dl): ± 78.0 and uric acid (mg/dl): 6.2 ± 4.1. The study protocols and methods were approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the Kaohsiung Medical University Hospital and by the Ethical Committee at Center for genomic medicine, RIKEN.
