Table 3 Age at disease onset in Apo-1/Fas promoter polymorphism at position -670

From: An examination of the Apo-1/Fas promoter Mva I polymorphism in Japanese patients with multiple sclerosis

Genotype

No. of patients

Age at onset (mean age ± S.D.)

G/G

23

25.0 ± 9.5

G/A

65

25.4 ± 7.7

A/A

26

29.1 ± 11.2

  1. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA. There was a trend for patients with the A/A genotype to have a later onset than patients with the G/G or G/A genotype, but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.168).
