Data on diabetes patients antigen classes

Description

Data are from Thomson et al. (1986) and describe the counts of combinations of four different antigen classes in 45 French type I diabetes patients. HWE is equivalent to a recessive model, see Thomson (1983) and Wakefield (2009) for more details.
