Although with modest limitations and biases, this metaanalysis suggests that EPHX1 Tyr113His and His139Arg</span>, GSTT1, GSTM1, GSTP1 Ile105Val and Ala114Val polymorphisms may be not risk factors for CRA development, while Ser allele of NQO1 Ser187 Pro may be a modest risk factor for CRA development, and may be used with other genetic markers for screening CRA in the future.
