  1. 1ORs and their 95% CIs were adjusted for age, occupation and BMI.
  2. 2ORs and their 95% CIs were adjusted for age, occupation, BMI and carriage of the minor allele of the IL1β (rs1143634) or/and IL6 (rs1800795) SNPs.
  3. OA osteoarthritis, SNP single nucleotide polymorphism, OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, BMI body mass index.
