Only alleles with frequency ≥ 1 % in at least one of the groups are presented. CI: confidence interval; OR: odds ratio; PSC: primary sclerosing cholangitis.

a

Zero cell correction performed by adding 0.5.

b

Significant test of heterogeneity, p (X22df) =0.01, random effects model used.

c

Bonferroni corrected p-value; 0.24.
