Significant difference at PC ≤ 0.05 between responder and nonresponder patients to treatment. †Significant difference at PC ≤ 0.05 (corrected P after the Bonferroni correction) between patients and healthy group. Each patient may have multiple suballeles or none at all, so that totals are not always equal to “.”
