3.2. The relationship between rs9514827 and pSS susceptibility in random health controls and pSS patients
There were no statistical differences in rs9514827 in pSS patients and health controls (Table 2). Because of heterogeneity (Figures 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d and 2e), the genotype of TT and CC chose the fixed model, and the genotype of TC and the allele of T and C chose the random model. For rs9514827, OR values, 95% CIs and P values for each genotype and allele are shown in Table 2. There was no relationship between rs9514827 and pSS susceptibility (OR [95% CI], p-value: TT=0.92[0.62-1.37], p=0.70, TC=1.14[0.88-1.47], p=0.33, CC=0.81[0.50-1.31], p=0.39, T=0.95[0.60-1.51], p=0.84, and C=1.05[0.66-1.67], p=0.84) (Table 2, Figures 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d and 2e).
