This article [1] has been retracted by the authors after discovering that a set of markers which would not pass quality control criteria has been used for the association study described, resulting in false positives being included. As a result, some sections of the article are inaccurate. To avoid confusion this article has been retracted and the authors have been given the opportunity to resubmit their corrected data. All authors agree to this retraction.
