0/0 indicates genotypes characterized by the presence of 2 wild-type alleles (values are percentages); 0/1, the presence of 1 wild-type and 1 mutant allele; 1/1, the presence of 2 mutant alleles, and NS, not statistically significant.

*

The odds ratios obtained in the subgroup of 46 patients 50 years or younger.
