Genome-wide association analysis identifies new lung cancer susceptibility loci in never-smoking women in Asia.

Qing Lan, +133 more
- 01 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: It is observed that there is no evidence of association for lung cancer at 15q25 in never-smoking women in Asia, providing strong evidence that this locus is not associated with lung cancer independent of smoking.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 5p15.33 Locus Is Associated with Risk of Lung Adenocarcinoma in Never-Smoking Females in Asia

Chao A. Hsiung, +81 more
- 05 Aug 2010 - 
TL;DR: Results show that genetic variation in the CLPTM1L-TERT locus of chromosome 5p15.33 is directly associated with the risk of lung cancer, most notably adenocarcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trans-Ethnic Fine-Mapping of Lipid Loci Identifies Population-Specific Signals and Allelic Heterogeneity That Increases the Trait Variance Explained

Ying Wu, +79 more
- 21 Mar 2013 - 
TL;DR: The authors conducted a trans-ethnic fine-mapping study at 18, 22, and 18 GWAS loci on the Metabochip for their association with triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density LDL-C, respectively, in individuals of African American, East Asian, and European ancestry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chronic hepatitis infection is associated with extrahepatic cancer development: a nationwide population-based study in Taiwan

TL;DR: The present population-based study revealed that in addition to its association with primary liver cancer, CHI is associated with an increased risk of extrahepatic cancer.
