Allele frequency of HLA-A and HLA-B in BS patients compared with the general population in Japan among the ISG positive group (extracted data were shown)

	AF of BS patients^† (%)	AF of the general Japanese (%)	p-value	Pc-value^§

HLA-A*02	18.3	24.5	0.18
-A*24	33.7	37.2	0.52
-A*26	22.1	12.0	2.5x10^–3	1.5x10^–2
HLA-B*51	24.6	9.0	1.4x10^–8	2.0x10^–7
-B*52	8.8	11.1	0.52
-B*54	8.8	7.6	0.82

↵† n=52 for HLA-A analysis, n=57 for HLA-B analysis.
↵§ Correction by the Bonferroni correction by multiplying the primary P-value by 6 (HLA-A) or 14 (HLA-B).
