Four SNPs passed the Bonferroni threshold after comparing slow progressors against controls on low frequency SNPs (MAF < 5%). For each SNP, the chromosome, the minor allele A1, the minor allele frequency (MAF), the frequency of the group in the dominant mode (used for association tests), the p value in the dominant mode, the odds ratio (OR), and the genes concerned (SNP and/or SNP(s) in LD with r2≥0.9 in Caucasians HapMap data) are provided. A SNP was assigned to a gene if it was located in the gene or within the 2kb flanking regions.
