The Role of Haptoglobin Genotypes in Chagas Disease

Table 1

HP genotype frequencies in healthy individuals and in chronic Chagas disease patients.

	Chagasic patients; 𝑛=96	Healthy individuals; 𝑛=120	OR	𝑃𝑐
Genotypes
HP 1-1	4 (4)	18 (21)	0.2	0,006*
HP 2-1	42 (40)	38 (46)	1.15	ns
HP 2-2	54 (52)	44 (53)	1.49	ns
Alleles
HP1	25 (48)	37 (88)	0.71	ns
HP2	75 (144)	63 (152)	1.41	ns

Note. The genotype and alleles frequencies are expressed in percentages, followed by the number of individuals or chromosomes in parentheses. OR: odds ratio, 𝑃_𝑐: corrected 𝑃 values, ns: not significant, *significant.
