  1. * The haplotypes were identified by the Bayesian statistical method available in the program Phase 2.1.
  2. ** The chi-square test (2 × 2 table) was performed to obtain the p value. For example, the numbers of haplotypes of control and GD with Ht1 were compared with the numbers of control and GD without Ht1. A p value < 0.01 was considered as statistically significant. Only haplotype with a frequency of 0.01 or above in either cases or controls are shown.
