Frequency of the homozygous OCTN-TC haplotype and of the homozygous IGR2078a_1AA genotype stratified by clinical phenotype of Crohn’s disease
Subgroup | No of individuals (n = 412) | Frequency of the TC haplotype (%) | Significance v controls (p value*; OR (95% CI) | Frequency of IGR2078a_1A (%) | Significance v controls (p value*; OR (95% CI) |

*p values given were significant (p<0.05), also after application of Bonferroni’s correction. †Data were also analysed for isolated fistulising or fibrostenotic disease behaviour but no further significant association was noted. | |||||
