Table 2.

Odds Ratios and 95% confidence intervals for cervical cancer in relation to -1082 IL-10 alleles in South African cervical cancer cases (CaCx) and controls.

Genotype CaCx* (n = 197) n (%) Controls* (n = 182) n (%) OR1 (95% CI) OR2 (95% CI) OR3 (95% CI)
GG 29 (15) 41 (23) 0.6(0.3–1.0) 0.6(0.3–1.0) 0.6(0.3–1.2)
AA 88 (45) 76 (42) 0.9(0.6–1.5) 1.0(0.6–1.6) 1.0(0.6–1.6)
AG 80 (41) 65 (36) 1.0 1.0 1.0

*Data given as percentages (As there were no differences in the distribution of IL-10 alleles between the mixed race and African groups the data was combined) OR1 = crude odds ratio OR2 = crude OR adjusted for IFN-γ OR3 = adjusted for ethnic group, 5 year age group, years of education, age at first sexual intercourse, number of sexual partners, urban/rural living, number of Pap smears, injectable/oral contraceptive use, smoking, parity, and IFN-γ.
