Figure 1.
Estimated probability of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) predicted by the number of risk alleles present. Logistic regression modelling depicting the probability of developing childhood-onset SLE based on the number of SLE susceptibility alleles carried in patients who are European-American (green), African-American (red), Hispanic (purple), and Gullah (blue). The number of SLE risk alleles is associated with the development of childhood-onset disease in Gullah and African-American, but not in Hispanic and European-American patients with SLE.
