Association of Homozygous Wild-Type Glutathione S-Transferase M1 Genotype with Increased Breast Cancer Risk
Bibliographic record
Abstract
More than 500 studies have examined the association of the glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) genotype with various malignancies yielding inconsistent results. The genotyping was based on a PCR assay that identified the GSTM1 null (-/-) genotype but did not distinguish homozygous wild-type (+/+) and heterozygous (+/-) individuals. We developed an assay that allowed the definition of +/+, +/-, and -/- genotypes by separate identification of wild-type and null alleles, which were found with frequencies of 0.225 and 0.775, respectively, in Caucasian women. We applied the new assay to a breast cancer case-control study and identified the +/+ genotype in 14 (6.9%) of 202 control subjects compared with 37 (18.2%) of 203 patients. Compared with women with the -/- genotype, the relative risk of breast cancer for the +/+ genotype was 2.83 (95% confidence interval, 1.45-5.59; P = 0.002), suggesting a protective effect of the GSTM1 deletion.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
