*Genotype distribution of rs738722, rs2074356 and rs2274223 was assessed by Chi-square test.

ORs were adjusted for age, sex, smoking, drinking and HPV16 status.

αThe observed genotype frequencies of rs738722 among controls were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P = 0.689).

βThe observed genotype frequencies of rs2074356 among controls were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P = 0.433).

γThe observed genotype frequencies of rs2274223 among controls were in agreement with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P = 0.609).
