Moreover, in the subgroup analysis by cancer type, we found that XRCC1-rs25489 polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer (BC) in heterozygote model.
We provide no evidence of an association between polymorphisms in XRCC1 and bladder cancer risk, although our study had only limited power to detect the association for low frequency variants, such as Arg280His.
We found an increased risk of bladder cancer associated with the XRCC1 194Trp/Trp and 280Arg/His genotypes (adjusted odds ratio = 3.90, 95% confidence interval = 1.69-8.98 for 194Trp/Trp and 2.53, 1.67-3.83 for 280Arg/His) compared with the 194Arg/Arg and 280Arg/Arg genotypes, respectively.
The aim of this study was to examine the association between polymorphisms of DNA repair genes, namely X-ray repair cross-complementing group I (XRCC1) rs2854509 and rs3213255, and bladder cancer recurrence risk.

APEX1 rs3136817, MUTYH rs3219493, three SNPs (rs3213356, rs25487 and rs1799782) in XRCC1, and three SNPs (rs1799794, rs861531 and rs861530) in XRCC3 showed significant associations with the risk of bladder cancer.
