High-mobility Group Box Protein-1, Matrix Metalloproteinases, and Vitamin D in Keloids and Hypertrophic Scars.

66 In a Chinese cohort of 261 patients with keloids and 261 controls, the odds of having keloids in patients possessing the TaqI CC genotype compared with the most predominant genotype, TC, approached but did not reach statistical significance [odds ratio (OR) = 1.280; P = 0.051]. 67 However, an increased OR for having keloids was reported for patients possessing the germline TaqI CC genotype compared with the TT genotype (OR = 3.334; 95% confidence interval = 2.042–5.276).
