Abstract excerpt
The genetic polymorphism of the CYP1A1 exon7 (rs1048943) gene is thought to have a significant effect on lung cancer risk, but the results are inconsistent. To assess this relationship more precisely, a meta-analysis was performed. Ultimately, 45 case-control studies, involving 19,689 subjects were included. A significantly increased lung cancer risk was associated with two exon7 genotype variants (for Val/Val vs...
