Comparison of the p53 codon 72 polymorphism distributions in normal control groups from various case/control studies in a limited region (Taiwan population only) (ref. 16–23) (a) GBM cases from around the globe (ref. 24–32) (b) and this study. The analyzed GBM cases showed a very similar distribution to the control groups in other studies of Caucasians (from the USA, Germany, and Europe). Studies from North India and Taiwan clearly showed a different allele distribution with a high frequency of the proline allele in comparison to Caucasians. N, number of analyzed cases
