a

Discovery cohort statistics.

b

Adjusted for: principal components 1–5, % time on therapy since disease onset, weighted genetic risk score, number of DRB1*1501 alleles and imbalanced variables: follow-up time in MSBase (years), symptom duration (years), annualised relapse rate.

c

rs10191329 power tested using alpha of 0.05. For suggestive variants, power tested using alpha of 0.05/6 (0.008) for continuous outcomes.

d

Adjusted for: principal components 1–5, % time on therapy since disease onset, weighted genetic risk score, number of DRB1*1501 alleles and imbalanced variables: symptom duration (years), age at most recent visit, number of EDSS scores assessed.

e

Adjusted for: principal components 1–5, weighted genetic risk score, number of DRB1*1501 alleles and imbalanced variables: follow-up time in MSBase (years), symptom duration (years), annualised relapse rate.

f

Adjusted for: principal components 1–5, weighted genetic risk score, number of DRB1*1501 alleles and imbalanced variables: symptom duration (years), age at most recent visit, number of EDSS scores assessed.
