Multivariate logistic regression found SNPs in genes important for T helper type 1 (Th1) immunity (IFNGR2 rs1059293, IL15RA rs2296135, LTA rs1041981), Th2 immunity (IL4R rs1801275), and T regulatory cell-mediated immunosuppression (TGFB1 rs1800469) associated with breast cancer risk, mainly among AAs.

Both rs3077 and rs2284553 polymorphisms were not associated with HBV viral load in terms of allelic frequency, genotypic frequency, dominant/recessive gene action. rs9808753 (G allele) was associated with a reduced chance of "undetectable HBV DNA" for patients below the age of 50 years in allelic frequency analysis (odds ratio 0.562; 95% confidence interval, 0.326-0.967; P value = 0.037).
There was no significant association between HLA-DP polymorphism (rs3077) and IFN-γ receptor-2 gene polymorphism (rs2284553) with viral activity in HBeAg-negative CHB patients.
Further studies are required to confirm the association between IFN-γ receptor-2 gene polymorphism (rs9808753) and reduced chance of having "undetectable HBV DNA" in young CHB patients.

Five SNPs, rs3733475A/C (IRF2), rs2069832A/G (IL6), rs2012075G/A (IFNGR2) and rs1400656G/A (STAT4) and rs1805011C/A (IL4RA) were found to be associated with asthma in family based as well as in case-control analyses (P=0.002, P=0.001, P=0.004, P=0.003 and P=0.001, respectively).
