Logistic regression model for periodontal risk haplotype in either chromosome (dominant model).

aModel 1, adjusted for number of teeth; model 2, adjusted additionally for age, gender, diabetes, smoking (never/ever); model 3, adjusted additionally for PPD.

bOR (95% CI) per unit increase of logarithmically transformed values.

cOR (95% CI) per change from low risk to moderate/high risk of having periodontitis (CRS II-III vs. I).

CI: confidence interval; CRS: cumulative risk score; LTA: lymphotoxin-α; MPO: myeloperoxidase; OR: odds ratio; PLTP: phospholipid transfer protein.

Significant P values are highlighted in bold. Analyses were performed in the Parogene population (n = 455) including patients with an indication to coronary artery angiography.
