All subjects
p = significance between TT genotypes compared to CC genotypes
p1 = significance between TT genotypes compared to TC genotypes
p2 = significance between TC genotypes compared to CC genotypes
CS patients
P3 = significance between CS patients with the T allele (TTgenotypes + TC genotypes) compared to the patients without the T allele (CC genotypes)
