Genotype frequencies of IL17A rs2275913 in Brazilian patients with LVSD in chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy, stratified according to gender.

Gender	IL17A G197A	With; LVSD; (%)	Mild/moderate; LVSD; (%)	Control; (%)
Male	GG	23 (45.1)	13 (59.1)	43 (58.11)
	GA	24 (47.06)	9 (40.9)	30 (40.54)

LVSD, chronic Chagas cardiomyopathy patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
Data adjusted by age.
Only significant results are showed.
OR = 6.63 and 95% CI = 1.21–36.40; with LVSD versus control.
OR = 7.57 and 95% CI = 1.07–53.40; mild/moderate LVSD versus control.
