* p value was calculated by a by chi-square (χ2) test using a 2 × 2 table to compare the frequency of genotypes possessing the A allele vs. TT homozygotes and corrected (pc>) for the number of tests performed.

** p value was calculated by a by chi-square (χ2) test using a 2 × 2 table to compare the frequency of genotypes possessing the T allele vs. CC homozygotes and corrected (pc) for the number of tests performed.

NS - non significant.
