Table 1. Genotype and allele frequencies of interleukin-1β (-511) and interleukin-1β (+3953)
There was no statistically significant difference in genotype frequency (GF) or allele frequency (AF) distribution of the two polymorphisms between NTG and control subjects. The breakdown was as follows: For IL-1β -511, the AF was p=0.3 and the GF was p=0.4; for IL-1? +3953, the AF was p=0.88 and the GF was p=0.98.
