Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | positive |
| Result | An association of MS with HLA-DRB1*15 was found (14.7% vs 3.8%, OR (95% CI)=4.34 (1.69-11.39), p(c)=2.5×10(-3)) after Bonferroni's correction. Moreover, the DRB1*15-DQB1*06 (13.8% vs 2.8%, OR (95% CI)=5.44 (1.92-17.41), p(c)=1.1×10(-3)) and DRB1*04-DQB1*04 (8.6% vs 1.9%, OR (95% CI)=4.86 (1.36-21.62), p(c)=0.028) haplotypes were found to confer a susceptibility to multiple sclerosis. |
