Polymorphisms and colorectal tumor risk.

Gastroenterology - 1 Aug 2001

Houlston R S, Tomlinson I P

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Increasingly, studies of the relationship between common genetic variants and colorectal tumor risk are being proposed. To assess the evidence that any of these confers a risk, a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies was undertaken. METHODS: Fifty studies of the effect of common alleles of 13 genes on risk were identified. To clarify the impact of individual polymorphisms on...
