  1. Order of SNPs for haplotype analysis is rs3850641 and rs704840. TNFSF4 tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 4, Pc value P value with Bonferroni correction, NS not significant. Italicized values are statistically significant
  2. aHaplotypes with a frequency less than 3% were not included in the analysis
