Concerning TIRAP rs8177374, the T allele was prominently higher in nephritis patients (30.2%) than in non-nephritis patients (13.8%, OR1= 2.691, p = 0.005) and controls (10%, OR2 = 3.886, p < 0.001), although the T allele difference between non-nephritis patients and controls was not significant (OR3 = 1.444, p = 0.334). This evidence concerns the gene TIRAP and nephritis.
