Table 5 Results of 2-SNP haplotype analysis in a) European Americans cases and controls, and b) African American cases and controls. Empiric P-values are based on 1,000 or 10,000 permutations; only haplotypes with at least one P-value < 0.05 are shown. P-values that were significant after adjusting for multiple (45) comparisons are in bold font; ns, not significant (P ≥ 0.05).
