Interestingly, on the top of their association with allergy and pancreatitis, homozygote carriers of the variant rs3809849 allele in the MYBBP1A gene were associated with a higher risk of thrombosis (OR = 6.8; 95% CI, 1.3-36.5; p = 0.02; Figure 2a); whereas, rs11556218 in IL16 and rs34708521 in SPEF2 were, in addition to thrombosis, also correlated with pancreatitis (OR = 3.1; 95% CI, 1.1-8.6; p = 0.02 and OR = 3.4; 95% CI, 1.1-10.6; p = 0.02; Figures 2b and 2c, respectively). Here, IL16 is linked to pancreatitis.
