Table 1 Counts (n), frequencies (%) and association statistics for genotypes and minor-alleles (FasR-1377G/A, FasR-670A/G, FasL-844T/C).

From: Fas and FasL gene polymorphisms are not associated with cervical cancer but differ among Black and Mixed-ancestry South Africans

  1. P-values and OR (95% confidence intervals) are for test of genotype or additive allelic association with cervix cancer risk, adjusted for ethnicity, and for genotype/additive association with ethnicity in controls. For genotypes, P-values next to genotype names are for joint model, others are for ORs of specific genotype compared to reference genotype, indicated with OR = 1. ORs for alleles are the odds for an additional copy of that allele. ORs for genotype-ethnicity association (in controls only) are odds of genotype/allele in black compared to odds of genotype/allele in individuals of mixed-ancestry.
  2. Cases = Women with cancer of the cervix, Controls = Women without cancer of the cervix.
