1 New Mexican Hispanic smokers have lower odds of COPD and less decline in lung function than non-hispanic whites Shannon Bruse, Akshay Sood, Hans Petersen, Yushi Liu, Shuguang Leng, Juan C. Celedón, Frank Gilliland, Bartolomé Celli, Steven A. Belinsky, Yohannes Tesfaigzi ONLINE DATA SUPPLEMENT

2 Methods Random Sampling Approach for Matching on Smoking Intensity Further analyses were performed which matched the NHW and Hispanic sample on smoking intensity, then evaluated the association between ethnicity and COPD (GOLD). Smoking intensity was calculated as packs smoked per day while smoking or cumulative pack-years. The matching strategy was as follows: The Hispanic sample was divided into quartiles based on smoking intensity. NHW within the range of the quartiles set by the Hispanic sample were then randomly sampled, resulting in a NHW and Hispanic sample of the same size and with the same smoking intensity. To avoid a sampling bias, random sampling was repeated 1000 times, and for each random sampling the data was modeled using logistic regression to assess the association between ethnicity and COPD (GOLD). Verification for the Estimates for Genetic Ancestry The LSC contains a small number of Native American and African-American individuals with significant admixture (based on pilot STRUCTURE runs). Accurately estimating ancestral proportions using STRUCTURE is challenging if there are very few representatives of the parental population. Therefore, the final STRUCTURE runs were seeded using publicly available genotype data from Native American and African populations. We used the HapMap Yoruban sample containing 37 of the AIM SNPs genotyped in 153 individuals (1), and 14 AIM SNPs genotyped in 50 Pima and Maya individuals contained in the CEPH human diversity panel (2). Genotype data for the Yoruban and Pima/Maya populations was downloaded from the SPSmart database, from the HapMap and CEPH Stanford and Michigan datasets (3).

11 Figure E1 The clusters were likely defining European (blue), African (red), and Native American (green) ancestral populations. As a control for this assumption, the allele frequencies in each STRUCTURE-defined cluster (from runs not seeded with Yoruban and Pima/Maya data) were compared with allele frequencies in African, European, and Native American populations in the HapMap and CEPH datasets (Figure S1). Comparison of allele frequencies of 14 SNPs in these three ancestry groups as found in public genotype data (HapMap and CEPH) (Figure S1, part A) and from STRUCTURE-defined clusters (Figure S1, part B) were similar, supporting the assumption that African, European, and Native American proportions were correctly estimated. Modest differences between allele frequencies in STRUCTURE clusters and the CEPH and HapMap populations are expected given the small and highly admixed African American and Native American samples used in our unseeded STRUCTURE runs. Figure E1: Comparison of allele frequencies in STRUCTURE defined population clusters with HapMap data. Unseeded STRUCTURE runs were performed using all 48 AIM SNPs. The 14 AIM SNPs with publicly available Pima/Maya genotype data were assessed for correlation of allele frequencies between cluster defined populations and HapMap and CEPH genotype data. (A) Allele frequencies for public genotype data were obtained from Yoruban Nigerian (YRI), Pima/Maya, and European (CEU) populations. (B) Allele frequencies from STRUCTURE defined clusters were obtained from runs not seeded with Yoruban or Pima/Maya genotype data, and are assumed to represent European, African, and Native American genetic ancestry.
