Abstract

ABSTRACTNumerous studies have investigated the association between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and urinary system cancer risk, but the findings are inconsistent. To derive a more precise estimation of such association, we performed a meta-analysis based on 22 publications encompassing 5,274 cases and 6,459 controls. Overall, significant association was found between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and urinary system cancer risk. Moreover, stratified analysis observed a statistically significant association for bladder cancer, prostate cancer, renal cell carcinoma, Caucasians, Asians, and hospital-based studies. In summary, this meta-analysis indicated that NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism conferred genetic susceptibility to urinary system cancer.
