- DM Dermatomyositis, PM Polymyositis
- All variables were analysed against latitude in an ordered logistic regression analysis, adjusted for sex. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified as having suggestively significant P values (P < 2.25 × 10−5) for either PM or DM in the Immunochip study [8] were used. SNP risk allele frequencies were calculated from the Immunochip study control data (n = 9911)
