a

Odds ratio and its 95% confidence interval for the allelic association test

b

P-value for allelic association test; multiallelic p-value for HLA-C is 3.4 × 10−8 in Thais and 3.2 × 10−77 in Caucasians

c

Frequency of HLA-B46 in Caucasians is based on typing all HLA-Cw1-positive individuals (160 cases and 174 controls successfully typed) and a large subsample of HLA-Cw1-negative individuals (505 cases and 667 controls successfully typed)
