    Int J Cancer 107:292-7. 2003
    ..However, because of uncertainty due to the small number of deaths and relatively young ages of subjects, we cannot rule out an increase in disease mortality at this time...

    ..97 (95% confidence interval 0.70-1.36). Because of the small number of cases, however, we cannot exclude an increase in cancer incidence at this time...

    ..93, P = 0.007) by multiple logistic regression analysis. Thus, CRP levels are influenced not only by environmental factors but also by the polymorphism of LTA or other genes in the same haplotype block...

    Mieko Kodaira
    Department of Genetics, Radiation Effects Research Foundation, Hiroshima 732 0815, Japan
    Radiat Res 162:350-6. 2004
    ..Our finding contrasts with those of some other studies in which much lower radiation doses, applied chronically, caused significantly increased mutation rates. Possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed...
