| pubmed-article:8477470 | pubmed:abstractText | In 104 non-related children with coeliac disease, all from northern Moravia, the authors assessed the distribution of HLA antigens class I and II and compared the findings with a control group. They revealed a positive association between HLA A1 (62% sick subjects as compared 27% healthy ones), B8 (68% as compared with 18%), DR3 (66% as compared with 14%) and DQw2 (79% as compared with 23%). In HLA antigens class II there is a higher relative risk of the disease for subjects with antigens DR3 and DQw2 and a higher aetiological fraction for the investigated antigens. | lld:pubmed |
