Values adjusted for age and race. Further adjustment of family history yielded similar results. P values less than .05 are italicized.

NA indicates no amplification observed; ND, amplification occurred but genotype could not be determined; NC, not calculated (for cells with fewer than 5 subjects); and —, not applicable.
