Selected haplotypea main effects on SCCHN risk, additive genetic model

ALDH2 (rs4767939, rs2238151, rs7312055, rs2158029, rs16941667, rs16941669) ACAGCT AA (26%) 1.0 (ref)

a

Criterion for selecting haplotypes for this table: ORs were statistically significant, or nearly so, after Bonferroni correction for multiple testing (13 for EA, 12 for AA)

b

AA=African-American (black), EA=European-American (Caucasian/white)

c

Unconditional logistic regression models for estimating main effect of each haplotype were adjusted for matching variables sex and age category and their 2-way interaction, and for continuous smoking duration rounded to whole years. The referent group for each OR was the most common haplotype.
