- 01 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-stage genome-wide association study of pancreatic cancer, a cancer with one of the lowest survival rates worldwide, was conducted, where 558,542 SNPs were genotyped in 1,896 individuals and 1,939 controls drawn from 12 prospective cohorts plus one hospital-based case-control study.

Body Size and Risk of Colon and Rectal Cancer in the European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC)

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used multivariable adjusted Cox proportional hazards models to examine the association between anthropometric measures and risks of colon and rectal cancer among 368 277 men and women who were free of cancer at baseline from nine countries of the European Prospective Investigation Into Cancer and Nutrition.

Genome-wide association study identifies variants in the ABO locus associated with susceptibility to pancreatic cancer

Laufey T. Amundadottir, +77 more
TL;DR: An association between a locus on 9q34 and pancreatic cancer marked by the SNP rs505922 is identified, consistent with earlier epidemiologic evidence suggesting that people with blood group O may have a lower risk of pancreaticcancer than those with groups A or B.
