ABSTRACT: Background
The tumorigenesis of lung cancer is complicated, and genetic factor may have the role in the malignant transformation of lung cells. IL-10 gene polymorphisms have been evaluated for their potential roles in lung cancer. However, those studies results are controversial. To clarify the effects of IL-10 rs1800871, rs1800872 and rs1800896 polymorphisms on the risk of lung cancer, a meta-analysis was performed with eligible individual studies.Methods
Eligible publications were gathered by retrieving PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Wan Fang, and CNKI up to September 01, 2023. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of such association.Results
A total of 23 studies, including 5950 patients with lung cance
