Consistent with the U.S. study, the SLC23A2 rs1715364 CC genotype was associated with an elevated OR for SLL/CLL (U.S.: OR = 1.9, 95% CI = 1.2–3.1, p = 5.5×10−3; Germany: OR = 1.8, 95% CI = 0.77–4.1, p = 1.8×10−1), though the confidence interval included one. Here, SLC23A2 is linked to B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
