The risk (OR and 95% CI), of neurotoxicity grades 1/2 and 3/4 associated with the minor allele of indicated ABCB1, ACTG1 and CAPG polymorphisms in the presence of clinical covariates. The referent categories for these covariates were age ≥1 and <10, standard risk group and the most recent treatment protocol (00-01); BSA was a continuous variable.

Blank cells show that the p-value was not significant for the association between neurotoxicity and polymorphism.

BSA: Body surface area; OR: Odds ratio; Sig.: Significance.
