Abstract excerpt
A meta-analysis of case-control studies that investigated the association between the C677T and/or A1298C polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was carried out. Pooled odds ratios (OR) of various genetic contrasts of each polymorphism were estimated using random (RE) and fixed effects (FE) models. Pooled ORs for combined genotypes and...
