In osteonecrosis patients, the odds ratio (OR) of A allele was 3.932 (95% CI: 3.0847 ~ 5.0123), which suggested that subjects carrying A allele of promoter region -75 G > A of ApoAI gene had higher susceptibility to osteonecrosis than G allele carriers. The gene discussed is APOA1; the disease is osteonecrosis.
