Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | positive |
| Result | Our results show a significant difference of the allelic frequency distribution between the case and control groups for TaqI SNP (P = 0.01), but genotype frequencies were not significantly different (P = 0.07 and 0.23). |
| Mechanism/Pathway | N/A |
