Table 1. Distribution of genotypic and allelic frequencies for IL-1β −511 (C/T) polymorphism in cases and controls.
| Subjects | IL-1β (−511 C/T) genotypes number (%) | Allele frequencies in % | Gender % (M/F1) | Age (years) | |||
| CC | CT | TT | C | T | |||
| Cases | 6 (10.3) | 35 (60.3) | 17 (29.4) | 40.5 | 59.5 | M = 29, F = 26 | 11–64 |
| Controls | 26 (21.1) | 47 (38.2) | 50 (40.7) | 40.2 | 59.8 | M = 35, F = 66 | 7–88 |
