Genetic variants of AICDA/CASP14 associated with childhood brain tumor.
We conducted a hospital-based case-control study in Korea to investigate whether apoptosis- and cell cycle control-related genes are associated with childhood brain tumor. Incident brain tumor cases (N = 70) and non-cancer controls (N = 140), frequency-matched by age and gender, were selected from 3 teaching hospitals in Seoul between 2003 and 2006. Tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (N...
متن کاملFine-Mapping of Common Genetic Variants Associated with Colorectal Tumor Risk Identified Potential Functional Variants
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with colorectal cancer risk. These SNPs may tag correlated variants with biological importance. Fine-mapping around GWAS loci can facilitate detection of functional candidates and additional independent risk variants. We analyzed 11,900 cases and 14,311 controls in the Genetics a...
متن کاملGenetic Variants Associated with Colorectal Adenoma Susceptibility
BACKGROUND Common low-penetrance genetic variants have been consistently associated with colorectal cancer risk. AIM To determine if these genetic variants are associated also with adenoma susceptibility and may improve selection of patients with increased risk for advanced adenomas and/or multiplicity (≥ 3 adenomas). METHODS We selected 1,326 patients with increased risk for advanced adeno...
متن کاملGenetic variants associated with sleep disorders
OBJECTIVE The diagnostic boundaries of sleep disorders are under considerable debate. The main sleep disorders are partly heritable; therefore, defining heritable pathophysiologic mechanisms could delineate diagnoses and suggest treatment. We collected clinical data and DNA from consenting patients scheduled to undergo clinical polysomnograms, to expand our understanding of the polymorphisms as...
متن کاملFive genetic variants associated with prostate cancer.
n engl j med 358;25 www.nejm.org june 19, 2008 2738 less than originally planned. Landry and Oliver propose a three-group trial (norepinephrine alone, vasopressin alone, and the two combined), which raises two concerns. First, the sample-size requirements for three-group trials are onerous — much greater than those for two-group trials. Second, treating patients with vasopressin alone would be ...
