No genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been reported for smoking behaviors in Hispanics/Latinos in the United States and Latin America, who are of mixed ancestry with European, African, and American Indigenous components.
778 Hispanic non-daily smoker cases, 1,786 Hispanic daily smoker controls
