Frequency of G6PD deficiency genotype between cases and controls.

aOdds ratios adjusted for village (unpublished data); age group and tribe dropped due to nonsignificance (age group) and low sample sizes (tribe).bBoth wild-type and Med variant alleles shared the same basic B allele background as found in GenBank accession no. L44140 and cited in Saunders et al. [22], but we identified three indels, within introns at positions, 584.1, 628.1, and 1450.1 (numbering based on Saunders 5.2 kb fragment). The only difference between the Med variant and wild-type alleles was the single nucleotide change at nt 563.
