Germline genetic variants and risk of Barrett's esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma: a large scale meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies

<h4>Background</h4> <p>Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA) is one of the fastest rising cancers in western countries. Barrett’s Esophagus (BE) is the premalignant precursor of EA. However, only a subset of BE patients develop EA, which complicates the clinical management in the absence...
