Moreira et al. [33, 34], for example, showed a significant association between the IL-1A C[−889]T and IL-1B C[3954]T polymorphisms, and chronic periodontitis in the TT + TC versus CC contrast (dominant model); however, they did not attempt to do a comparison in the recessive (TT versus TC + CC) or log additive models which would have probably resulted in reporting stronger association as the data suggests. Here, IL1B is linked to periodontitis.
