-valuea,b,c represents the comparison adjusted for age, gender, smoking, and drinking by logistic regression analysis. The two-sided χ2 test or Fisher’s exact test was used in allele distribution comparison. CHB, chronic hepatitis B; CI, confidence interval; ECM, extracellular matrix; HBV, hepatitis B virus; HCC, hepatocellular carcinoma; LC, liver cirrhosis; OR, odds ratio; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism.
