  1. Results of LOMG with onset age ≥50 years are compared with results from our previous study of EOMG (15). Case and control antigen frequencies are shown. The ORs and 95% CIs are shown for each HLA antigen except where not available (NA). Data were selected to show the 10 most significant associations in the MG subgroups and also included DRB1*15:01 and HLA-B*07:01 for comparison with previous studies (see Supplementary Table S6 for complete HLA analyses).
