Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated fibroinflammatory disorder of unknown aetiology, potentially linked to genetic factors. This study conducted the first genome-wide association study on IgG4-RD in the Chinese Han population to identify genetic susceptibility loci. METHODS: The study analysed data from 1161 patients with IgG4-RD and 10,539 controls across 2 independent cohorts, with...
