Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Despite progress in identifying genes associated with breast cancer, many more risk loci exist. Genome-wide association analyses in genetically-homogeneous populations, such as that of Sardinia (Italy), could represent an additional approach to detect low penetrance alleles. METHODS: We performed a genome-wide association study comparing 1431 Sardinian patients with non-familial,...
