FIG. 1 Loci showing associations or linkages with parasitic and immunological disorders. Loci involved in susceptibility to parasitic diseases are those discussed in the sections dedicated to individual parasites. Additional loci were identified for malaria from previous reviews [1,2,100]. For immunological disorders, the Huge Navigator [101] database was searched for loci showing associations in genome-wide association studies or meta-analysis. AA, asthma–allergy; AfT, African trypanosomiasis; AIT, autoimmune thyroid disease; AmT, American trypanosomiasis; As, ascariasis; AS, ankylosing spondylitis; CeD, coeliac disease; CL, cutaneous leishmaniasis; LF, lymphatic filariasis; IBD, inflammatory bowel disease; MS, multiple sclerosis; On; Onchocerca volvulus; Pf, Plasmodium falciparum; Ps, psoriasis; RA, rheumatoid arthritis; Sh, Schistosoma haematobium; Sj; Schistosoma japonicum; SLE, systemic lupus erythematosus; Sm, Schistosoma mansoni; T1D, type 1 diabetes; Tr; Trichuris trichiura; VL, visceral leishmaniasis. Chromosome maps from Ensembl.org. The MHC class I and II regions are not shown.
