†HLA grouping is according to relative risks for coeliac disease estimated in the Italian population according to Margaritte‐Jeannin and colleagues.15 DR3 haplotype carries DQB1*0201 and DQA1*0501, DR7 carries DQB1*0202, DR5 carries DQA1*0501, and DR4 carries DQB1*0302.
X = not DR3 or 7; Y = not DR3, 4, or 7; Z = not DR3, 4, 5, or 7.
