OR: odds ratio adjusted for age, sex, and smoking in logistic regression CI: confidence intervals.
aDifferences between individual haplotypes (between controls and CP or controls and AgP) were analyzed using the Fisher exact test.
*OR not calculated because of the presence of zero values.
Bold: significant result.
