The OR and 95%-confidence interval (CI) lower- and upper-bound (LB and UB)3⁄4reported as OR (95% CI LB, 95% CI UB)3⁄4for rs117382854, rs10176009, rs231780, rs7528265, and race, respectively, were 2.99 (1.27, 7.02), 2.68 (1.21, 5.95), 1.41 (1.11, 1.79), 1.19 (1.01, 1.40), and 0.74 (0.57, 0.96) (Figure 4A, covariates A-E), which indicate that the MAs of three of these four IMD-gene-variations (i.e., NOS2, B3GNT2, and IL10) increased the risk of having FEIs of AT on study entry while the true MA of CTLA4 and WE-racial/ethnic-ancestry were protective. This evidence concerns the gene NOS2 and ataxia telangiectasia.
