OR indicates odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
The observed genotype frequency among individuals in the control group was in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (: = 0.483, for ABCG2 G34A; = 0.378, for ABCG2 C421A).
values were calculated from 2-sided chi-square tests for either genotype distribution or allele frequency.
Adjusted OR and 95% CI values were calculated by unconditional logistic regression adjusted for age and menopausal status.
