Association of interleukin-10-1082 (-1087) A > G polymorphisms and periodontitis risk: An updated meta-analysis based on 26 case-control studies.

abstract：:Multivariate linkage analysis has been suggested for the analysis of correlated traits, such as blood pressure (BP) and body mass index (BMI), because it may offer greater power and provide clearer results than univariate analyses. Currently, the most commonly used multivariate linkage methods are extensions of the un...
