Prediction of lung cancer risk in a Chinese population using a multifactorial genetic model

BMC Medical Genetics, 2012
Background Lung cancer is a complex polygenic disease. Although recent genome-wide association (GWA) studies have identified multiple susceptibility loci for lung cancer, most of these variants have not been validated in a Chinese population.

Lung cancer risk at low cumulative asbestos exposure: Meta-regression of the exposure-response relationship [PDF]

, 2013
Purpose: Existing estimated lung cancer risks per unit of asbestos exposure are mainly based on, and applicable to, high exposure levels. To assess the risk at low cumulative asbestos exposure, we provide new evidence by fitting flexible meta-regression ...
