The risk haplotypes are noted in roman font, and the protective haplotypes are noted in italic font.

The frequencies of haplotypes, from subsequent iterations of the EM algorithm in hapassoc (an open sources R package), were estimated based on the genotype data from all subjects combined.

The ORs, listed in descending order, were age- and sex-adjusted in generalized linear models (GLM) by using the hapassoc package.

§

ORs with P < 0.05.

Two rare haplotypes of block 3 (rs2241394–rs2230199), C–G and C–C, were pooled together to prevent estimation algorithm failed to converge due to very low frequency of rare alleles.
