Considering the prevalence of FMF reported in Turks and Sephardic Jews [25][26], as well as the distribution of MEFV genotypes in affected and healthy individuals, we could make a rough estimate of the risk and relative risk for heterozygotes to develop FMF, as compared to healthy individuals. Risks are indicated by labels next to each sector, relative risks are displayed below each genotype distribution. m: mutated MEFV allele; N: normal MEFV allele.
