| Abstract | We conducted an association study to identify risk variants for familial prostate cancer within the HPCX locus at Xq27 among Americans of Northern European descent. We investigated a total of 507 familial prostate cancer probands and 507 age-matched controls without a personal or family history of prostate cancer. The study population was subdivided into a set of training subjects to explore genetic variation of the locus potentially impacting risk of prostate cancer, and an independent set of test subjects to confirm the association and to assign significance, addressing multiple comparisons. We identified a 22.9 kb haplotype nominally associated with prostate cancer among training subjects (292 cases, 292 controls; χ2 = 5.08, P = 0.020), that was confirmed among test subjects (215 cases, 215 controls; χ2 = 3.73, P = 0.040). The haplotype predisposed to prostate cancer with an odds ratio of 3.41 (95% CI 1.04–11.17, P = 0.034) among test subjects. The haplotype extending from rs5907859 to rs1493189 is concordant with a prior study of the region within the Finnish founder population, and warrants further independent investigation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
