Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recently, independent genome-wide scans have found multiple genetic variants at 8q24 to be associated with prostate cancer risk. This study was performed to determine whether two of the variants more strongly associated with prostate cancer risk in European and American populations, specifically rs16901979 and rs6983561, were also associated with prostate cancer risk in Taiwanese men. METHODS: We...
