Hi cp418:

Thanks for this. I believe this is a link to the full text of the original journal article, and it is viewable in pdf there:

Thanks, CP and Barred.

I guess I need to go look up my specific variant and plow through the abstract again... I already know it's listed as high risk but it will be interesting to see if it turns up in this study...

ETA - I do think it's fascinating that we're now seeing studies such as this and I really do appreciate those who bring them to our attention. I try to keep up with the literature but, clearly, many sources are better than fewer.
