Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: As 2 important SNPs located in the promoter region of VEGF gene, the roles of rs833061 (-460C>T) and rs699947 (-2578C>A) in lung cancer susceptibility and survival remain inconclusive and controversial. MATERIAL/METHODS: For better understanding of these 2 SNPs in lung cancer risk and survival, a meta-analysis was performed to pool findings of previous studies and to generate large-scale evidence....
