Genotype frequencies of rs4341 and rs4343 polymorphisms in COVID-19 patients according to its hypertensive, dyslipidemic or diabetic status.

Data are presented as number of patients and percentages.

*p-value for group difference between GG and GC and CC.

$p-value for group difference between GG+GC and CC.

#p-value for group difference between GG+GA and AA.

%p-value for group difference between GG+GA and AA.

Significant differences appear in bold case.

All data were adjusted for age, sex, BMI and number of comorbidities.
