Genotype and allele distribution of C(-1562)T gene polymorphism in MMP-9 gene in patients and controls
| N | Genotypes | Alleles | OR (95 % CI) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CC | CT | TT | CT + TT | C | T | CT + TT genotype | T allele | |
| Stroke patients | ||||||||
| 322 | 174 (54) | 132 (41) | 16 (5) | 148 (46) | 0.75 | 0.25 | 1.89 (1.39–2.56) p < 0.0001 |
1.73 (1.34–2.23) p < 0.0001 |
| Controls | ||||||||
| 410 | 283 (69) | 119 (29) | 8 (2) | 127 (31) | 0.84 | 0.16 | Ref. | Ref. |
Genotype distributions are shown as numbers (%). HWE test for controls X 2 = 1.25, p = 0.536; for stroke patients X 2 = 2.05, p = 0.359
