of transmission was observed for the–1123G allele in this subgroup. The GRR analysis
showed no increased frequency of genotypes carrying one or two–1123G alleles (data not
shown). No RA linkage was observed as none of the haplotypes was overtransmitted.
However, PTPN22 linkage to RF+ RA was significant for the haplotype carrying both–1123G
and+ 1858T alleles (p= 0.03).
