Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | Positive |
| Result | Stepwise conditional analysis identified HLA-DRB1*04:05, |
| Mechanism/Pathway | In auto-immune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and type 1 diabetes, fine-mapping studies have identified strong genetic risk variants in the MHC region |
