B-related† | 174/88/3 | 645/317/33 | 0.89 (0.69-1.15) | 0.029 |
Non-B¶ | 594/446/72 | 317/183/27 | 1.26 (1.05-1.50) |
Note: The logistic regression analyses were adjusted for age, gender and HBV genotype (excluding the stratified factor in each stratum) in the additive genetic model.
P-value for the heterogeneity test.
B-related genotypes including B and BC.
Non-B genotypes including C and D.
