Abstract excerpt
A previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) reported three novel nephrolithiasis-susceptibility loci at 5q35.3, 7p14.3 and 13q14.1. Here, we investigated the association of these loci with nephrolithiasis by using an independent Japanese sample set. We performed case-control association analysis using 601 patients with nephrolithiasis and 201 control subjects. We selected seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms...
