In this study, the presence of the A allele of SNP rs2941504 was reported to be significantly associated with asthma with P value of 1.2 × 10-8 and odds ratio of 1.29; this association remained significant (P = 3.2 × 10-2) even after adjusting for the effect of the originally associated ORMDL3 variant (P = 1.56 × 10-7). Here, ORMDL3 is linked to asthma.
