The prefix KIR is not shown with the gene names.

OR indicates odds ratio; and CI, confidence interval.

*

Logistic regression analysis adjusted for the effect of other genes in the table.

KIR2DS4 was considered absent when the PCR amplified only the 22-bp deleted amplicon. It was considered present when the nonmutant amplicon was observed on the gel with or without the mutant band.
