Table 2. Comparison of the ages of onset and death among IPF patients with different AluYb8MUTYH genotypes.
| Genotypes | Age of onset* | Age of death* | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number | Mean age | P-value | Number | Mean age | P-value | |
| A/A | 65 | 70.5±1.0 | 32 | 74.6±1.4 | ||
| A/P | 108 | 69.7±0.8 | 0.54 | 45 | 71.5±1.3 | 0.12 |
| P/P | 37 | 66.5±1.1 | 0.01 | 18 | 69.4±1.6 | 0.02 |
*A comparison was made between the A/P and A/A or between the P/P and A/A genotypes using one-way ANOVA, followed by post hoc analysis. The age is shown as the mean ± SD. P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
