Abstract excerpt
The aim of the study is to investigate the association of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphism, additional gene-gene interaction, and haplotype combination with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) risk. Pairwise linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis was conducted using SNPstats. The association between four SNPs within VDR gene and SLE risk was investigated by logistic regression. Generalized multifactor...
