Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Several case-control studies reported the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in HSP70 genes and noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). However, their conclusions are conflicting. This meta-analysis aims to identify the association of HSP70 variants and NIHL susceptibility. METHOD: A systematical literature search was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Wanfang Chinese...
