  1. aWe divided the cases into high or low anti-CCP/RF group based on the titer ≥ 100 units; Values indicate the frequency of cases with high anti-CCP or high RF out of given subjects; All risk alleles (data not shown) and haplotype do not affect the high anti-CCP or high RF titer frequency using chi square test [ORs (95% CI) 1.09 (0.86–1.38) and 1.11 (0.90–1.38) in order].
  2. bRF titer was not significantly related to risk haplotype using nonparametric statistics despite a trend toward higher titer in the risk groups.
