OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval. Multivariate models including rs12979860 and rs8099917. Comparisons between crude (rs12979860) and multivariate model including rs12979860 and rs8099917 were statistically significant in codominant () and recessive models (). Haplotype frequencies were estimated by maximum likelihood.
