Under the additive gene model of IL-10-1082 G/A study, the P-values of Asian, European, Africans and global effects were 0.058, 0.558, 0.871 and 0.136, respectively, which were all greater than 0.05, indicating that the IL-10-1082 G/A gene polymorphism was not associated with neonatal sepsis in the additive gene model. Here, IL10 is linked to Neonatal sepsis.
