Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Associations between cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) +49A/G polymorphism and cancer risk are inconclusive. We performed this meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was performed using electronic databases. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of association. RESULTS: A...
