Description:
Positive survival effects of FOXO3A and negative effects of FOXO1A largely compensate each other if one carries both, although FOXO3A has a stronger impact. At very advanced ages 92–110, adjusted for various confounders, positive effects of FOXO3A on survival remain statistically significant. Note: CI for OR is 1.61–1.73.
