Two- and three-locus haplotypes associated with viral clearance and persistence

SR, spontaneously recovered; CI, chronically infected; HF, frequency of allele or haplotype is presented in percentage; p_c value, p value corrected by multiplying the number of haplotypes tested (20 for DRB1-DQB1; 20 for DQB1-DPB1; 19 for DRB1-DQB1-DPB1); OR, odds ratio (SR group vs. CI group); CI, confidence interval; NS, statistically not significant after correction (p_c->0.05); NA, not applicable.

^*, p value was calculated by chi-square test.
