‡ Major haplotypes have a frequency ≥ 5%. Minor alleles are shaded in gray. Bonferroni corrected level of statistical significance for European Americans p < 0.0125 and for African Americans p < 0.00625.

Among European Americans, the ten diplotypes associated with the major haplotypes A, B, C, and D from table 3, only the BD diplotype was associated with albuminuria (OR 3.03, 95% CI 1.36 - 6.79, p = 0.007, compared to individuals without the BD diplotype). However, this did not reach a Bonferroni corrected level of statistical significance of p < 0.005. The diplotypes consisting of the B or D "risk" haplotypes were rare, with BB, BD, and DD diplotypes accounting for 2.7%, 2.2%, and 0.5% of the 1663 European Americans with available diplotypes analyzed.
