The "A" allele of rs208290 showed an increased PTB risk by the additive model (OR = 1.418, 95% CI = 1.179-1.706, P < 0.001) and dominant model (OR = 1.680, 95% CI = 1.297-2.177, P < 0.001), whereas the "A" allele of rs7958311 showed an increased risk by the additive model (rs7958311, OR = 1.260, 95% CI = 1.055-1.505, P = 0.011) and recessive model (OR = 1.609, 95% CI = 1.200-2.158, P = 0.001).
The results indicate a significant association between rs2393799</span> polymorphism of the P2X7 gene and susceptibility to PTB (CT vs CC: OR = 6.5, 95%CI = 2.5-16.9, P < 0.0001; TT vs CC: OR = 3.3, 95%CI = 1.2-8.9, P = 0.018; TC+TT vs CC: OR = 2.56, 95%CI = 1.59-4.12, P < 0.0001).
The results show that the "C" allele of rs656612 in the P2X7R gene was associated with an increased PTB risk by the additive model (OR = 1.307, 95% CI = 1.088-1.570, P = 0.004) and dominant model (rs656612, OR = 1.490, 95% CI = 1.153-1.926, P = 0.002).
