An increasing trend for serum HDL-C was also observed with an increasing number of alleles ( p <0.001).
An increasing trend for serum HDL-C was also observed with an increasing number of alleles ( p <0.001).
P -values less than 0.0038, 0.0033, or 0.010 were considered nominally significant in the regression analysis of the 13 SNPs; the 15 combinations for the selected 4 SNPs; and the reference and 5 categories for the number of alleles, respectively.
