The interest in performing gene–environment interaction studies has seen a significant increase with the increase of advanced molecular genetics techniques. Practically, it …
Candidate gene and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 11 independent susceptibility loci associated with bladder cancer risk. To discover additional …
Bladder cancer results from the combined effects of environmental and genetic factors, smoking being the strongest risk factor. Evaluating absolute risks resulting from the joint …
A modification of generalized estimating equations (GEEs) methodology is proposed for hypothesis testing of high-dimensional data, with particular interest in multivariate …
