Significant association of XPD codon 312 single nucleotide polymorphism with bladder cancer susceptibility in Taiwan.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The DNA repair gene xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD), an important caretaker of the overall genome stability, is thought to play a major role in the development of human malignancy. Polymorphic variants of XPD, at codon 312 (rs1799793), 751 (rs13181) and promoter-114 (rs3810366), were chosen to be studied for their association with bladder cancer susceptibility in a central Taiwanese population. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this hospital-based case-control study, bladder cancer patients (308) and age- and gender-matched healthy controls (308) were recruited and their genotypes were analyzed by a polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. RESULTS: A significant difference in the frequency of the XPD codon 312 genotype, but not the XPD codon 751 or promoter-114 genotypes, was found between the bladder cancer and control groups. Those who had G/A or A/A at XPD codon 312 showed a 1.85-fold (95% confidence interval=1.34-2.56) increased risk of bladder cancer compared to those with G/G. As for XPD codon 312 and promoter-114, there was no difference in distribution between the bladder cancer and control groups. CONCLUSION: The heterozygous and homozygous A allele of the XPD codon 312 may be responsible for bladder carcinogenesis and useful in the early detection and prediction of bladder cancer.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
