Abstract
The occurrence rate of HLA class I and class II alleles was established in 24 patients suffering from dermatological disorders associated with the Hel icobacter pylori infection. The increased frequency of HLA-C*0602, 4 was fo und to be 0.1875 compared to 0.0733 in the control group (odds ratio: 2.913 ; two-sided P value: P = 0.0251). Our data suggest that the HLA-Cw6 molecul e play a role in the susceptibility to the Helicobacter pylori infection.
