Notes

Genome-wide association study identifies germline polymorphisms associated with relapse of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Each rs17079534(A) allele increases odds of relapse by 4.07 (CI:2.4-6.87, adjusted p=2 × 10e−4) based on a study of 2,500 childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients.
