Abstract excerpt
BACKGOUND: Bladder cancer (BCa) is a heterogeneous disease caused by the interaction between environmental and genetic risk factors. The goal of this case-control study was to evaluate the implication of a selected SNP panel in the risk of BCa development in a Tunisian cohort. We were also interested in studying the interaction between this predictive panel and environmental risk factors. METHODS: The...
