Table 3  DGL5 113A variant allele frequency, carrier frequency, heterozygote frequency, and homozygote frequency in the inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and control populations

Controls IBD (p value) Crohn’s disease (p value) Ulcerative colitis (p value)

Allelic frequency 13.2% 11.4% p = 0.30 11.4% p = 0.37 11.4% p = 0.34
Carrier frequency 63/256 (24.6%) 125/652 (19.2%) p = 0.069 65/356 (18.3%) p = 0.057 60/296 (20.3%) p = 0.228
Heterozygosity rates 59/256 (23%) 110/650 (16.7%) p = 0.033 57/356 (16%) p = 0.029 53/294 (18%) p = 0.45
Homozygosity rates 4/256 (1.5%) 15/650 (2.3%) p = 0.48 8/356 (2.2%) p = 0.36 7/294 (2.4%) p = 0.50

The p values shown are calculated between the control group and each respective disease group.
