Development and internal validation of a multifactorial risk prediction model for gallbladder cancer in a high-incidence country
(Wiley, 2023)
Since 2006, Chile has been implementing a gallbladder cancer (GBC) prevention program based on prophylactic cholecystectomy for gallstone patients aged 35 to 49 years. The effectiveness of this prevention program has not ...
Socioeconomic and nutritional factors account for the association of gastric cancer with amerindian ancestry in a latin american admixed population
(Public Library of Science, 2012)
Gastric cancer is one of the most lethal types of cancer and its incidence varies worldwide, with the Andean region of South America showing high incidence rates. We evaluated the genetic structure of the population from ...
Subtypes of Native American ancestry and leading causes of death: Mapuche ancestry-specific associations with gallbladder cancer risk in Chile
(Public Library of Science, 2017)
Latin Americans are highly heterogeneous regarding the type of Native American ancestry. Consideration of specific associations with common diseases may lead to substantial advances in unraveling of disease etiology and ...
Aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage in a Chilean population, with emphasis on risk factors
(2011)
Background: Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) is caused principally by the rupture of intracranial aneurisms. Important risk factors have been described such as age, sex, hypertension (HT) and season of the year, among others. ...

Association of interleukin-1 polymorphisms with periodontal disease
(2005)
Background: Several studies have investigated genetic polymorphisms for cytokines as potential genetic markers for periodontitis. Some studies have found that interleukin (IL)-1A and IL-1B polymorphisms are associated with ...
Genetic polymorphisms as non-modifiable susceptibility factors to laryngeal cancer
(Portland Press, 2020)
Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) is a highly disabling disease to the patient, affecting speech, swallowing and respiratory skills. Smoking and alcohol abuse are principal risk factors linked to this disease. Genetic ...
