For example, in the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium (WTCCC) dataset [ 13 ], the odds ratio ( OR ) of MS for individuals possessing one or more of these alleles is highly significant–for HLA-DRB1 * 15 : 01 ( OR = 3 . 24; p<<10 − 300 ); for HLA-DRB1 * 03 : 01 ( OR = 1 . 27; p<10 − 11 ); and for HLA-A*02 : 01 ( OR = 0 . 69; p<10 − 53 ).

nominally significantp = 0 . 01–0actually significant

However, if interaction terms are included in the regression equations, the associations for ( b1 ), ( b3 ), ( b4 ), and ( c6666 ) each become nominally significant ( p = 0 . 01–0 . 05 ).
