Recent studies of polymorphic single nucleotides in the human genome that are significantly associated with risk for or protection against leprosy.

Note: the alleles and frequencies were from uninfected controls. For consistency, the odds ratios for the infected and uninfected were aligned by the major allele. SNP: single nucleotide polymorphism; Chr: chromosome. Ref. [47] study: the haplotypes of four SNPs of rs2853694 (C), rs2853697 (A), rs3181216 (A), and rs3181225 (C) with a frequency of 0.34 were compared with their alternate three haplotypes, which had a combined frequency of 0.67.
