TL;DR: The findings point to multiple loci with moderate effects associated with susceptibility to prostate cancer that, taken together, in the future may predict high risk in select individuals.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of alpha-tocopherol and beta-carotene supplementation on the incidence of lung cancer across subgroups of participants in the ATBC Study defined by base-line characteristics (e.g., age, number of cigarettes smoked, dietary or serum vitamin status, and alcohol consumption), by study compliance, and in relation to clinical factors, such as disease stage and histologic type.

TL;DR: Strong genome-wide significant associations with 25(OH)D are confirmed through meta-analysis with the GWAS data for GC, NADSYN1/DHCR7, CYP2R1 and CYP 2R1, but not C10orf88, the key C-25 hydroxylase that converts vitamin D3 to an active vitamin D receptor ligand.
