HLA system in relation to carbohydrate metabolism in lichen planus

Abstract
HLA antigens were determined in a group of 52 patients with lichen planus. In the group as a whole the frequency of A28 was increased but not significantly so. When the patients were subdivided according to the results of an oral glucose tolerance test, a highly significant increase in the frequency of A28 was found among the non-diabetic patients.
