Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Evidence from prospective observational studies suggests that elevated circulating C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations are associated with cancer risk, but it is unclear whether this association is causal. In order to examine this, we investigated whether genetic variants that are...
