  • SNP group indicates the group of SNPs selected (as indicated in the text and supplementary information online).

  • R1 (replication cohort 1) included 1648 cases and 3258 controls from three populations.

  • R2 (replication cohort 2) included 538 cases and 593 controls from Italy.

  • The cohort used in our genome-wide association study (GWAS) in coeliac disease had 767 cases and 1422 controls (see supplementary information online).

  • *p Values calculated for the WTCCC cases versus NBS (normal blood sample) controls.

  • **p Values calculated using Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel in which all four coeliac disease populations were summed and considered as one cohort; and Crohn’s disease, RA and T1D cohorts from WTCCC (imputed genotypes) were compared to NBS-WTCCC controls.

  • AID, autoimmune diseases, here includes coeliac disease (all samples included in the current project), and WTCCC cohorts of Crohn’s disease, type 1 diabetes (T1D) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA); Chr, chromosome; CMH, Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel meta-analysis; OR, odds ratio; WTCCC, Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium.
