Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the HER-2 gene, body mass index (BMI) and the risk of endometrial cancer. DESIGN: Case-control study. SETTING: Medical centres in Korea. SAMPLE: DNA samples and medical histories were obtained from 125 endometrial cancer cases and 302 controls. METHODS: The genotypes evaluated in HER-2 at positions -423, -655, -776, -857,...
