The table shows selected haplotypes associated with disease. The most frequent 7-mer haplotype CATATAC (0.505) was employed as the baseline to determine the relative effects of the other haplotypes. The studied SNPs are (1) rs2393791, (2) rs7310409, (3) rs2259820, (4) rs2464196, (5) rs2259816, (6) rs1169310, and (7) rs1169313 arranged sequentially by their chromosomal positions, and blocks represent the range of variants constituting the respective haplotypes. ; by test.
