Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | Polymorphisms of IFNG may contribute to differences in susceptibility to MS between men and women |
| Mechanism/Pathway | Men carriers of I1(761)*CA13 , which is in strong linkage disequilibrium with the 30(325)*A, have increased susceptibilit |
