HLA-DRB1 alleles exhibited significant T1D association: three alleles (DRB1*03:01, DRB1*04:02, and DRB1*04:05) were positively associated, while three (DRB1*10:01, DRB1*15:02, and DRB1*15:03) were protective. DRB1*03:01 had the strongest association (OR = 5.04, p = 1.7x10−10). This evidence concerns the gene HLA-DRB1 and type 1 diabetes mellitus.
