Logistic regression analysis of rs5888 genotype frequencies and the severity of liver disease

rs5888 Genotype	Unadjusted				Adjusteda
	OR	95% CI		p	OR	95% CI		p
		Lower	Upper			Lower	Upper
CC	1.00				1.00
CT	1.35	0.71	2.57	0.356	1.52	0.60	3.93	0.384
TT	2.53	1.20	5.33	0.015	3.32	1.05	10.53	0.041

Note: exon 8 genotype frequencies are from 132 patients with mild and 46 subjects with severe liver disease.

^a Adjusted for gender, age at biopsy, estimated duration of infection and alcohol intake.
