[PMID 17568627] NOD2 3020insC (either rs2066847 or rs5743293) is the most common and highest risk variant in Crohn's disease.

[PMID 18371140] Carriers of any of several NOD2 variant SNPs do not respond well to treatment of perianal fistulating Crohn's disease by the antibiotics ciprofloxacin or metronidazole, whereas carriers of wild-type NOD2 genes have at least some chance (1 in 3) of responding well.

[PMID 17724347] NOD2/CARD15 SNP variants are associated with an increased risk of relapse and death for patients with acute leukemia after hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) with unrelated donors as compared with wild-type pairs. NOD2/CARD15 genotyping before transplantation may contribute to prognosis and influence clinical management.

[PMID 18756601] No association was found for NOD2/CARD15 SNPs (R702W, G908R) in Chinese patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

The 23andMe blog [Spittoon] reports that the C allele at rs9302752, a SNP in the NOD2 gene, is associated with greater susceptibility to leprosy in Asians (odds ratio 1.59).
