IL1B and malaria: The same associations were observed in the genotype-based analysis showing that individuals with AA genotype in IL-1β rs1143634 SNP (recessive model: AA vs AG/GG, AOR = 0.14, 95%CI 0.03–0.78, P = 0.024) and those with GA/AA genotypes in FcγRIIA/CD32 rs1801274 SNP (dominant model: GA/AA vs GG, AOR = 0.58, 95%CI 0.41–0.84, P = 0.003) were more likely to be protected against clinical malaria (Table 4).
