    • Lack of replication of interactions between polymorphisms in rheumatoid arthritis susceptibility: case–control study 

      Ferreiro-Iglesias, Aida; Calaza, Manuel; Pérez-Pampin, Eva; López-Longo, J.; Marenco, José L.; Blanco García, Francisco J; Narváez, Javier; Navarro, Federico; Cañete, Juan D.; Rodríguez de la Serna, Arturo; González-Álvaro, Isidoro; Herrero-Beaumont, Gabriel; Pablos, José L.; Balsa, Alejandro; Fernández-Gutiérrez, Benjamín; Cáliz, Rafael; Gómez-Reino, Juan J.; González, Antonio (BioMed Central, 2014-09-27)
      [Abstract] INTRODUCTION: Approximately 100 loci have been definitively associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility. However, they explain only a fraction of RA heritability. Interactions between polymorphisms ...
