Solvent exposure has been inconsistently linked to the risk for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The aim of this study was to determine whether the association is modified by genetic variation in immune genes. A population-based case-control study involving 601 incident cases of NHL and 717 controls was carried out in 1996-2000 among women from Connecticut. Thirty single nucleotide polymorphisms in 17 immune genes...
