OR—odds ratio; CI—confidence interval. Nominally significant results are in bold. Results that passed the Benjamini–Hochberg test for multiple comparisons are marked with an asterisk. a Numbers may not add up to 100% of subjects due to genotyping failure. All of the samples that did not give a reliable result in the first round of genotyping were retested in up to two additional rounds. Samples failing these procedures were omitted from the analysis. b Logistic regression analysis values are adjusted for age. c X2 and p-values for the deviation of the observed and of the numbers expected from the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) in the controls.
