Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Although case-control studies have identified numerous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with prostate cancer, the clinical role of these SNPs remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate previously identified SNPs for association with prostate cancer and accuracy in predicting prostate cancer in a large prospective population-based cohort of unscreened men. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS:...
