Association of tumor necrosis factor-α 308G/A polymorphism with urogenital cancer risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis

J. Cai, Yang, M. Y., Hou, N., and Li, X., Association of tumor necrosis factor-α 308G/A polymorphism with urogenital cancer risk: a systematic review and meta-analysis, vol. 14, pp. 16102-16112, 2015.

We integrated all the eligible studies and investigated whether the TNF-α 308G/A polymorphism correlates with urogenital cancer risk. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a risk factor for some urogenital cancers; however, in prostate and bladder cancers the results are controversial. PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and the Wanfang Database were searched for all case-control studies on the relationship between the TNF-α 308G/A polymorphism and susceptibility to urogenital cancer between January 1994 and January 2015.
