Results of multiple sclerosis :
| Risk Type | Disease risk |
| Main Result | positive |
| Result | Higher significant frequencies of the T allele and TT genotype for rs6897932 (C/T) were observed in patients comparing to controls (p=0.006). Higher frequencies of the T allele and the TT and TG genotypes and lower frequencies of the G allele and GG genotypes for rs201084372 (G/A) were found in patients comparing to controls (p<0.0001) |
