Stratification by ethnicity identified that H19 rs2839698 mutation significantly increased cancer risk in the Asian population under allele model (OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 1.01–1.19, p = 0.035), dominant model (OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.02–1.22, p = 0.020) and homozygous model (OR = 1.26, 95% CI = 1.07–1.47, p = 0.004) (Supplementary Table S2; Figure 2B). Here, H19 is linked to cancer.
