Candidate alleles are those for which statistically significant associations with sporadic Hodgkin disease were reported by Klitz et al.16 

T indicates number of transmitted alleles; NT, number of nontransmitted alleles; HD, Hodgkin disease; and NSHD, nodular sclerosis Hodgkin disease.

Includes full siblings and half siblings of HD patients.
