Two-locus haplotype frequencies (>3%) of MICA and HLA genes in patients with AITD.

Haplotypes	Patients HF (%)	LD
MICA*010-A*02	26.7	0.115
MICA*010-B*46	22.5	0.138
MICA*010-B*62	8.0	0.046
MICA*010-C*01	22.9	0.096
MICA*010-C*09	4.2	0.01

MICA*010-DR*08	16.0	0.071
MICA*010-DR*09	4.9	0.012

MICA: major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I chain-related gene A; HLA: human leukocyte antigen; AITD: autoimmune thyroid diseases; HF: haplotype frequencies; LD: linkage disequilibrium.
