a
Only haplotypes with a frequency of >2% are shown. The boldface type indicates statistical significance.
b
The TCRBV6S1/BV6S7 alleles are shown in abbreviated form below, without the TCRB and BV prefixes, respectively.
c
n, Number of alleles investigated.
d
OR = 2.47; χ2 = 8.8; P = 0.00296; Pc = 0.03 (10 alleles tested).
