Exposed: The Genetic Underpinnings of Ulcerative Colitis Relative to Crohn's Disease

Genes significantly associated with CD (triangles), UC (circles) or both (diamonds) as reported in recent genome wide association, CD meta-analysis and follow up studies plotted by odds ratios of risk allele for UC vs. controls as compared to same/equivalent risk allele for CD vs. controls. Genes listed are those with allele frequency risks reported for both CD and UC. Data preferentially from largest studies. Gene symbols outside axes lines have significant evidence for UC only or CD only.
