TL;DR: The authors found association between narcolepsy and polymorphisms in the TRA@ (T-cell receptor alpha) locus, with highest significance at rs1154155 (average allelic odds ratio 1.69, genotypic odds ratios 1.94 and 2.55, P < 10(-21), 1,830 cases, 2,164 controls).

TL;DR: A SNP in the 3′ untranslated region of P2RY11, the purinergic receptor subtype P2Y11 gene, is identified as an important regulator of immune-cell survival, with possible implications in narcolepsy and other autoimmune diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The results provide only limited support for the hypothesis that use of aspirin may reduce the risk of this disease, and no indication of protection from other NSAIDs.
Journal ArticleDOI
