DNA repair gene XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphism and glioma risk: a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND The polymorphism of XRCC3 Thr241Met has been indicated to be correlated with glioma susceptibility, but study results are still debatable. The present meta-analysis was performed to investigate the association between XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphism and glioma. METHODS A total of 3754 glioma patients and 4849 controls from nine separate studies were involved. The pooled odds ratio (OR...
متن کاملXRCC3 Thr241Met gene polymorphisms and lung cancer risk: a meta-analysis
Many studies have examined the association between the XRCC3 Thr241Met gene polymorphism and lung cancer risk in various populations, but their results have been inconsistent. To assess this relationship more precisely, a meta-analysis was performed. The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and CNKI database was searched for case-control studies published up to July 2012. Data were extracted and poo...
متن کاملPolymorphisms in DNA repair gene XRCC1 and skin cancer risk: a meta-analysis.
Published data on the association between polymorphisms of the X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene and skin cancer risk are inconsistent. Hence, we conducted a meta-analysis of three frequently occurring XRCC1 polymorphisms and risk of skin cancer to obtain the most reliable estimate of the association. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted from ...
متن کاملDNA Repair Gene XRCC1 Polymorphisms, Smoking, and Bladder Cancer Risk: A Meta-Analysis
Bladder cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the United States. The main identified risk factor is cigarette smoking, which is estimated to contribute to up to 50% of new cases in men and 20% in women. Besides containing other carcinogens, cigarette smoke is a rich source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can induce a variety of DNA damage, some of which is repaired by the base excisio...
متن کاملDNA repair gene XPD polymorphisms and cancer risk: a meta-analysis based on 56 case-control studies.
Genetic variations in the XPD gene may increase cancer susceptibility by affecting the capacity for DNA repair. Several studies have investigated this possibility; however, the conclusions remain controversial. Therefore, we did a systematic review and executed a meta-analysis to explore the association. From 56 studies, a total of 61 comparisons included 25,932 cases and 27,733 controls concer...
