Although no association was found with ulcerative colitis in the comparison between the subgroups, the frequencies of rs962917 and rs1545620 were different in the Crohn's disease (CD) subgroup with ileocolitis (CC vs CT and TT, P = 0.014; and AA vs AC and CC, P = 0.022, respectively). rs1545620 variants appear to be the genetic susceptibility factor for perianal disease in CD patients (AA vs AC CC, P = 0.029).
