Association between variants in VDR and PTPN2 and risk of islet autoimmunity (n = 111 affecteds and 1570 unaffecteds).

Variable HR 95% CI p-Value
Model of VDR Variants
VDR rs1544410 (AA/AG vs. GG) 1.39 0.94, 2.07 0.10
VDR rs2228570 (AA/AG vs. GG) 0.99 0.68, 1.45 0.96
VDR rs11568820 (TT/TC vs. CC) 0.73 0.49, 1.10 0.13
Model of PTPN2 Variants
PTPN2 rs1893217 (GG/GA) 1.36 0.90, 2.04 0.15
PTPN2 rs478582 (CC/CT) 1.23 0.80, 1.87 0.35

In the Model of VDR variants, the three VDR SNPs were included in a single model, adjusting for HLA-DR3/4, DQB1*0302 genotype, first degree relative with type 1 diabetes, and non-Hispanic white ethnicity. Likewise, in the Model of PTPN2 variants, the two PTPN2 SNPs were included in a single model, adjusting for HLA-DR3/4, DQB1*0302 genotype, first degree relative with type 1 diabetes, and non-Hispanic white ethnicity.
