Data shown in (%). OR = odds ratio; 95% CI = 95% confidence interval; allele analysis and genotype analysis in dominant genetic model or in recessive genetic model for association were used by Pearson chi-square test, and genotype analyses in codominant genetic model for association were used by logistic regression.
