Similarly, in B cells, the presence of CD24 on IgD+ CD38- unsw mem cells (OR = 1.2797, 95% CI = 1.0090 to 1.6231, p = 0.0419) and IgD on IgD+ CD38- cells (OR = 1.6871, 95% CI = 1.2058 to 2.3605, p = 0.0022) has also been shown to be associated with an increased risk of prostatitis. This evidence concerns the gene CD24 and male reproductive organ cancer.
