Associations between rs6871626 Genotypes and Clinical Manifestations of TAK

An association between rs6871626 genotypes and (A) development of AR, (B) severity of AR, and (C) time-averaged CRP levels in TAK cases. The p value was calculated by (A) logistic regression analysis, (B) linear regression analysis, and (C) linear regression analysis with time-averaged dosage of prednisolone as covariate. The recessive model is applied to all calculations. Severity of 1 to 3 in AR corresponds to mild, moderate, and severe, respectively. Mean ± SD are indicated for (B) and (C).
