Notes

rs1343151 is one of several SNPs in the IL23R gene that has been shown in a large (over 1,000 Caucasian patients) study to be associated with ankylosing spondylitis. The odds ratio is 0.8 (p=1.0x10e-5).PMID 17952073, PMID 18037607 rs1343151 with rheumatoid arthritis (OR=1.14 [1.06-1.22], P=4x10-4) rs1343151 was not associated with rheumatoid arthritis in a study of 1,200+ Korean patients. A;A homozygous individuals showed a strongly reduced risk of Crohn's Disease compared those who were G;G homozygous.
