Based on analysis by race/ethnicity (Table 2), the -592C/A polymorphism of the IL-10 gene was significantly associated with an increased risk of cervical cancer in Caucasians for the recessive model (OR (FEM) = 1.50, 95% CI = 1.12–2.00, p=0.006), dominant model (OR (REM) = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.03–2.40, P=0.04), and additive model (OR (FEM) = 1.15, 95% CI = 1.15–1.46, P < 0.0001) (Figure 3). Here, IL10 is linked to cervical cancer.
