We analyzed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL2RA region (rs7093069), IFIH1 region (rs1990760) and CTLA-4 region (rs231775) in group of Polish children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (n = 194) and autoimmune thyroid diseases (GD n = 170, HT n = 81) and healthy age and sex matched controls for comparison (n = 110). Here, CTLA4 is linked to hematocrit.
