Stratified Analysis
We further performed a stratified analysis of the relationship between
lncRNA TDRG1 rs8506 polymorphism and sepsis susceptibility by
clinical features (Table 3). The rs8506 TT genotype was found to be
markedly associated with an increased sepsis risk among the children
aged 12–60 months (TT vs. CC/CT: OR = 2.377, 95%CI =
1.068–5.286, P = 0.0338; adjusted OR = 2.413, 95%CI =
1.083–5.376, P = 0.0311), females (TT vs. CC/CT: OR =
2.848, 95%CI = 1.218–6.658, P = 0.0157; adjusted OR = 2.868,
95%CI = 1.226–6.714, P = 0.0152), sepsis (TT vs. CC/CT:
OR = 2.508, 95%CI = 1.139–5.522, P = 0.0224; adjusted OR =
2.533, 95%CI = 1.149–5.586, P = 0.0213), and survivors (TTvs. CC/CT: OR = 1.845, 95%CI = 1.061–3.209, P = 0.0301;
adjusted OR = 1.822, 95%CI = 1.046–3.175, P = 0.0343). However,
no significant associations were found in other stratified analyses.
