The genotype distributions of IL-6-174G>C (χ2=1.24, P=0.27) and -592G>C (χ2=2.40, P=0.12) were comparable between coronary artery disease patients and control subjects, whereas a significant difference was observed between coronary artery disease patients and control subjects in respect to IL-6 -592G>C (χ2=15.87, P<0.001) (Table-III). The gene discussed is IL6; the disease is coronary artery disorder.
