RE: "POOLED ANALYSIS AND META-ANALYSIS OF GLUTATHIONE S-TRANSFERASE M1 AND BLADDER CANCER: A HuGE REVIEW"
American Journal of Epidemiology200215695109In the paper by Engel et al. (1) published in the July 15, 2002, issue of the Journal, several errors were introduced during production. While the errors were corrected in the online version of the paper, they were accidentally included in the printed version.
On page 96, the fifth sentence of the second paragraph should read as follows: "The other two (GSTM1a and GSTM1b) differ by a C
G substitution at base position 534, resulting in a Lys
Asn substitution at amino acid 172 (2)." On page 104, the references to interaction should refer to the effect of interaction between GSTM1 and smoking on bladder cancer risk. On page 109, the beginning of the first bulleted item should read "Odds ratios ranging from 2.5 to 3.5 for bladder cancer, using population-based controls, from ever smoking among GSTM1 active persons..." The beginning of the second bulleted item on page 109 should read "Odds ratios ranging from 1.45 to 2.02 for study controls from ever smoking among GSTM1 active persons..."
The Journal apologizes for these errors.
