Summary of polymorphism distribution and hepatitis C virus (HCV) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) status
| Genotyping | HCV PCR +ve (%) | HCV PCR −ve (%) | p Value | OR (95% CI) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of individuals with each genotype for the three different polymorphisms tested, divided according to their HCV PCR status. Values in parentheses are percentage of those HCV PCR positive or negative, according to their genotype. | ||||
| p values were calculated using the χ2 test, and odds ratio (OR) by Epi-Info. | ||||
| 95% CI, 95% confidence interval. | ||||
