A study of 57 Asian Indian patients with Graves' disease revealed a significant increase in the frequency of HLA-DQW2 (61.4%) as compared to the control population (22.6%) giving a relative risk of 5.4. Less prominent but statistically significant increase in the frequency of HLA-A10 (29.8% patients as opposed to 10.5% controls) and HLA-B8 (28.1% patients as opposed to 8.7% controls) was also observed. Further, patients carrying the phenotypes HLA-A10 and HLA-B8 were more prone to develop the disease at a younger age. Two HLA haplotypes, namely A10-B8 and B8-DR3, were found in significant linkage disequilibrium in our patients with Graves' disease. Patients carrying these haplotypes also had a tendency to develop the disease at an earlier age.
一项针对57名亚洲印度裔格雷夫斯病患者的研究显示,与对照组人群(22.6%)相比,HLA-DQW2的频率显著增加(61.4%),相对风险为5.4。还观察到HLA-A10(患者中为29.8%,而对照组为10.5%)和HLA-B8(患者中为28.1%,而对照组为8.7%)的频率有不太显著但具有统计学意义的增加。此外,携带HLA-A10和HLA-B8表型的患者更容易在年轻时发病。在我们的格雷夫斯病患者中,发现两种HLA单倍型,即A10-B8和B8-DR3,存在显著的连锁不平衡。携带这些单倍型的患者也倾向于在更早的年龄发病。
