Abstract excerpt
Haplotypes defined by multiple loci may be more precise and useful than genotypes in providing risk estimates for particular cancers. Diplotype is defined as a specific combination of two haplotypes. A Chinese case-control analysis comprising 370 cases and 388 controls was conducted to evaluate the effects of the high-risk diplotype predefined as PPP1R13L rs1970764(AA)-CD3EAP rs967591(GG)-ERCC1 rs11615(AA) among...
