Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to analyze the association between the 405G/C and -2578C/A polymorphisms of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene and breast cancer risk by meta-analysis. A systematic computerized search of PubMed, Google Scholar, and Web of Science databases was performed to identify relevant publications. After rigorous searching and screening, 9 eligible case-control studies were included in this...
