Table 2. FLG genotyping results for patients of white European ethnicity.

Cases n (%) Controls n (%)
Co-morbid atopic disease 22 (44.9) Undetermined

FLG wild type genotype 38 (77.6) 88 (88.0)
FLG heterozygote genotype 10 (20.4) 12 (12.0)
FLG homozygote or compound heterozygote 0 0
Incomplete genotyping data0 1 (2.0) 0

Total 49 (100.0) 100 (100.0)

Chi2 analysis p=0.16
Odds ratio (95% CI) 1.02 (0.77 to 4.85)

Cases with Fitzpatrick skin type of IV-V were excluded from the genetic analysis because FLG loss-of-function mutations remain ill-defined in these ethnic groups.
