Modelling the Major Histocompatibility Complex Susceptibility to RA Using the MASC Method

TL;DR: The TNF data provided additional information for a better understanding of genetic susceptibility to RA than was previously possible using only HLA‐DR data and the advisability of using different linked markers in a candidate region for modelling the contribution of this region in disease susceptibility is addressed.
