  1. The top 25 SNPs from RF analysis of the whole dataset are shown above. Most of the top SNPs are on chromosome 6p within the HLA region. The minor allele frequency (MAF) is derived from controls and the χ2-statistic is from univariate testing. *Indicates that the gene is the closest gene with distance.
