Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The long noncoding RNA PCAT1 is an important gene involved in urinary tumors. In this study, we aimed to explore the association between polymorphisms in PCAT1 and bladder cancer susceptibility. METHODS: A two-stage case-control study was conducted to assess the association between four tagging SNPs (i.e., rs4871771, rs1902432, rs16901904 and rs710886) and bladder cancer risk. Odds ratios (ORs) and...
