TL;DR: Two new regions associated with bladder cancer on chromosomes 22q13.1, 19q12 and 2q37.1 are identified and previous candidate associations for the GSTM1 deletion and a tag SNP for NAT2 acetylation status are validated, and interactions with smoking in both regions are found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basic epidemiology of fractures of the upper and lower limb among Americans over 65 years of age.
John A. Baron,Margaret R. Karagas,Jane Barrett,W. D. Kniffin,David J. Malenka,Michael B. Mayor,Robert B. Keller +6 more
TL;DR: Fractures at the hip were the most common, accounting for 38% of the fractures identified, and the proximal humerus, distal radius/ulna, and ankle also were common fracture sites; a pattern of rapidly rising rates with age was seen for fractures of the pelvis, hip, and other parts of the femur among women.
