Combinations of glutathione S -transferase genotypes and risk of early-onset lung cancer in Caucasians and African Americans: a population-based study

Abstract

Carcinogenesis , 26 , 811–819, 2005 . The authors would like to apologize for an error in Table IV , where the numbers have been inverted for GSTT1 . The complete correct table is given below. This error is topographical only; the findings remain the same. Odds ratios for risk of early onset lung cancer and GST genotype by smoking status in Caucasians, adjusted for age, sex, pack years of smoking and family history of lung cancer Total refers to all individuals, including non-smokers, light smokers and heavy smokers. Light smoker, 18 or fewer pack years of smoking, excluding non-smokers. Heavy smoker, 19 or greater pack years of smoking. Testing for joint effects by the following scheme: 0, no risk genotypes; 1, only one gene exhibits a risk genotype; 2, two genes exhibit a risk genotype; 3, three genes exhibit a risk genotype.
