Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for psoriasis comparing homozygous (C/C), heterozygous (C/T) and homozygous genotype (T/T) of rs411178 overall and separately for each of the four populations; Overall OR are standardized by population according to a logistic model in which population was introduced as a confounding variable after (non-significant) heterogeneity was detected by population; P-values are derived from the log-additive model, with homozygotes for the C allele at higher risk for psoriasis than homozygotes for TT as a basal genotype; Predictive performance of LCE3C_LCE3B deleted allele is presented for each population using the coefficient of determination measure (r2);
