This study was supported by grant R01MD014304 from the National Institute of Minority and Health Disparities, National Institutes of Health (NIH) (multiple principal investigators, Drs Krieger and Relton) andgrants MC_UU_00011/1,3, & 5 and MC_UU-00032/1 from the Medical Research Council (MRC IntegrativeEpidemiology Unit at the University of Bristol). The prior My Body My Story (MBMS) study was supported by grantR01AG027122 from the National Institute on Aging, NIH, and generation of the black carbon data for this studywas supported by pilot grant P30 ES000002 from the Harvard National Institute of Environmental HealthSciences Center. Generation of preexisting Multi-Ethnic Atherosclerosis Study (MESA) data was supported bycontracts 75N92020D00001, HHSN268201500003I, N01-HC-95159, 75N92020D00005, N01-HC-95160,75N92020D00002, N01-HC-95161, 75N92020D00003, N01-HC-95162, 75N92020D00006, N01-HC-95163,75N92020D00004, N01-HC-95164, 75N92020D00007, N01-HC-95165, N01-HC-95166, N01-HC-95167,N01-HC-95168, N01-HC-95169, UL1-TR-000040, UL1-TR-001079, UL1-TR-001420, UL1-TR-001881, andDK063491 from the NIH. The MESA Epigenomics & Transcriptomics Studies were funded by grants1R01HL101250, 1RF1AG054474, R01HL126477, R01DK101921, and R01HL135009 from the NIH. Funding for MESASHARe genotyping was provided by contract N02-HL-6-4278 from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute.Genotyping was performed at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT and at Affymetrix using the AffymetrixGenome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0.
