Abstract excerpt
Genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes may be involved in increasing the risk of bladder cancer. Association studies on the excision repair cross-complementation group 2 (ERCC2) gene polymorphisms and bladder cancer risk have reported conflicting results. The aim of this meta-analysis of eligible cancer case-control studies is to investigate the role of ERCC2 SNPs (Arg156Arg, Asp312Asn, and Lys751Gln), gender...
