In subgroup analysis for cancer types, the two polymorphisms were only associated with increased risk of pancreatic cancer (P582S: SS vs. PP: OR = 2.51, 95% CI: 1.31, 4.81; SS vs.
When stratified by study design, significantly elevated susceptibility to cancer was found among hospital-based studies.These findings suggested that the 1790G/A (rs11549467) genetic polymorphism may contribute to the susceptibility of cancers except gynecologic cancer, especially in homozygote comparison and recessive genetic model among Caucasian population, and this SNP was significantly associated with the lung cancer, pancreatic cancer and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
