The interleukin-6 -174G/C polymorphism and prostate cancer risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Urologia internationalis - 1 Jan 2012

Zhang Hongtuan, Xu Yong, Li Liang, Liu Ranlu, Ma Baojie

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: This systematic review and meta-analysis was undertaken to integrate previous findings and summarize the effect size of the association of interleukin-6 (IL-6) genetic polymorphism -174G/C with susceptibility to prostate cancer (PCa). METHODS: All eligible studies of IL-6 -174G/C polymorphism and PCa risk were collected from the following electronic databases: PubMed and the Cochrane Library, with the...
