Abstract excerpt
Two HLA class II haplotypes, HLA-[DQB1*0602; DQA1*0102; DR15] and HLA-[DQB1*0603; DQA1*0103; DRB1*1301] were found to be less common in 52 nonresponders compared with 68 responders, P<0.025 and P<0.05 respectively, after vaccination with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). Another haplotype, HLA...
