Association of interleukin-10 rs1800896, rs1800872, and interleukin-6 rs1800795 polymorphisms with squamous cell carcinoma risk: A meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-6 gene polymorphisms and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) has been demonstrated but with inconsistent conclusions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential associations of IL gene polymorphisms and the SCC risk. PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, China Biomedical Database, WanFang, and China Science and Technology Journal Database databases were searched for articles reporting the correlations of IL-10 and IL-6 gene polymorphisms with the SCC risk. Odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were calculated using Stata Version 11.2. Meta-regression, sensitivity, and publication bias were analyzed. False-positive reporting probability and Bayesian measure
