Genome-wide CNV analysis replicates the association between <it>GSTM1</it> deletion and bladder cancer: a support for using continuous measurement from SNP-array data

Genome-wide CNV analysis replicates the association between <it>GSTM1</it> deletion and bladder cancer: a support for using continuous measurement from SNP-array data

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Structural variations such as copy number variants (CNV) influence the expression of different phenotypic traits. Algorithms to identify CNVs through SNP-array platforms are available. The ability to evaluate well-characterized CNVs...
