Vascular endothelial growth factor -634 G/C polymorphism and risk of cancer: an updated meta-analysis

J. Y. Ban, Shin, J. I., and Oh, C. - H., Vascular endothelial growth factor -634 G/C polymorphism and risk of cancer: an updated meta-analysis, vol. 14, pp. 13906-13914, 2015.

The association between vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene polymorphisms and risk of cancer has been investigated in several studies published previously; however, the individual results are inconclusive. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to establish evidence for an association between the VEGF -634 G/C polymorphism and risk of cancer. We searched PubMed, Medline, and Korean Studies Information Service System databases and identified 29 case-control studies, containing data of 25,324 individuals, for this meta-analysis.
