a Homozygote comparison: variant homozygotes were compared with wild-type homozygotes; dominant model: a single variant allele was assumed to have a dominant effect; ie, both heterozygotes and variant homozygotes were at risk, compared with wild-type homozygotes; recessive model: only variant homozygotes (having both variant alleles) were at risk, compared with variant heterozygotes and wild-type homozygotes. [143]

b S: ILRN*2; L: other alleles.

c The fixed model (P > .05 for heterogeneity test); otherwise, the random model was used.

d CYP2E1-1053 (C→T): recessive model/homozygote comparison [64–68, 70–71]
