Abstract excerpt
To evaluate the contribution of association studies of candidate polymorphisms to inherited predisposition to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of published case-control studies. We identified 36 studies which reported on polymorphic variation in 19 genes and CLL risk. Out of the 23 polymorphic variants, significant associations (p < 0.05) were seen in pooled...
