چکیده

Methods Two SNPs, rs7993214, near the COG6 gene and rs1010824, near the ANGPT1 gene, were genotyped in UK JIA cases (n=817) and the genotype and allele frequency data compared with those for healthy controls (n=5196) extracted from the Wellcome Trust case control consortium 2 (WTCCC2) European Genomephenome Archive (EGA). The Cochrane-Armitage trend test implemented in PLINK was performed and allelic odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) calculated.
