In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the PARP-1 rs1136410: T > C polymorphism is a susceptibility factor for GI cancers, but the variant allele of MGMT rs12917: C > T polymorphism appears to be a protective factor for colorectal cancer.
In conclusion, APE1 (Asp148Glu), PARP1 (Ala762Val), and XRCC1 (Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp) were associated with the susceptibility to CRC, but were not associated with the prognosis of CRC.
The association between higher red meat intake (>3 servings per week) and CRC was modified by the PARP Val762Ala single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP; case-only interaction P = 0.026).
