Multivariate logistic regression found SNPs in genes important for T helper type 1 (Th1) immunity (IFNGR2 rs1059293, IL15RA rs2296135, LTA rs1041981), Th2 immunity (IL4R rs1801275), and T regulatory cell-mediated immunosuppression (TGFB1 rs1800469) associated with breast cancer risk, mainly among AAs.

Analyses of haplotypes for LTA-TNF SNPs (LTA -91C>A, LTA 252A>G, TNF -863C>A, TNF -857C>T, TNF -308G>A, and -238G>A) were similarly suggestive of an association with TGCT (P = 0.06) and nonseminoma (P = 0.04), but not seminoma (P = 0.21).

Five SNPs, rs3733475A/C (IRF2), rs2069832A/G (IL6), rs2012075G/A (IFNGR2) and rs1400656G/A (STAT4) and rs1805011C/A (IL4RA) were found to be associated with asthma in family based as well as in case-control analyses (P=0.002, P=0.001, P=0.004, P=0.003 and P=0.001, respectively).
Both rs3077 and rs2284553 polymorphisms were not associated with HBV viral load in terms of allelic frequency, genotypic frequency, dominant/recessive gene action. rs9808753 (G allele) was associated with a reduced chance of "undetectable HBV DNA" for patients below the age of 50 years in allelic frequency analysis (odds ratio 0.562; 95% confidence interval, 0.326-0.967; P value = 0.037).
There was no significant association between HLA-DP polymorphism (rs3077) and IFN-γ receptor-2 gene polymorphism (rs2284553) with viral activity in HBeAg-negative CHB patients.
