Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic factors were considered as one of the risk factors for lung cancer or other cancers. The aim of this work was to determine whether a genetic predisposition accounts for such familial aggregation of cancer among relatives of lung cancer probands. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted in 800 case families identified by lung cancer patients (probands), and in 800 control families identified...
