  • Breslow–Day p value is a measure of whether there is significant difference in the OR in the two cohorts.

  • Chr, chromosome; JIA, juvenile idiopathic arthritis; MAF, minor allele frequency; pTREND, p value for the Armitage test for trend as generated in PLINK; SNP, single-nucleotide polymorphism.
