Air Pollution, Genetic Factors, and the Risk of Lung Cancer: A Prospective Study in the UK Biobank

Both genetic and environmental factors contribute to lung cancer, but the degree to which air pollution modifies the impact of genetic susceptibility on lung cancer remains unknown. To investigate whether air pollution and genetic factors jointly contribute to incident lung cancer. We analyzed data...
