FEN1 -69G>A and 4150G>T polymorphisms and cancer risk in Chinese population.

ABSTRACT: Previous studies have investigated the associations between FEN1 -69G>A (rs174538) and 4150G>T (rs4246215) polymorphisms and cancer risk in Chinese population. However, the results were controversial. We therefore carried out a meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the associations. PubMed Database was systematically searched to identify potentially eligible literatures. Crude odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of associations between FEN1 -69G>A and 4150G>T polymorphisms and cancer risk in Chinese population. A total of 4 articles, including 5,108 cases and 6,382 controls, were used to evaluate the effect of the two polymorphisms on cancer risk. The pooled ORs indicated that FEN1 -69G>A and 4150G>T polymorphisms were
