However using T2DM and T2DM-CAD as dependent variables, IL-12 (OR = 9.3;95% CI = 3.2-70.7;p = 0.016), IFN-γ (OR = 2.8; 95% CI = 2.7-2.9, p = 0.010), IL-4 (OR = 2.7; 95% CI 2.7-2.7, p = 0.010), IL-5 (OR = 1.1;95% CI = 1.0-1.4; p = 0.003) and IL-13 (OR = 2;95% CI = 1.7-2.6; p = 0.017) showed significant association with T2DM-CAD. This evidence concerns the gene IL5 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.
