| Abstract | There is growing evidence for the important roles of genetic factors in the host’s susceptibility to bladder cancer. NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the two-electron reduction of quinoid compounds into hydroquinones. Since the NQO1 C609T polymorphism is linked to enzymatic activity of NQO1, it has also been hypothesized that NQO1 C609T polymorphism may affect the host’s susceptibility to bladder cancer by modifying the exposure to carcinogens. There were many studies carried out to assess the association between NQO1 C609T polymorphism and bladder cancer risk, but they reported contradictory results. We conducted a meta-analysis to examine the hypotheses that the NQO1 C609T polymorphism modifies the risk of bladder cancer. Eleven case–control studies with 2,937 bladder cancer cases and 3,008 controls were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, there was no obvious association between NQO1 C609T polymorphism and bladder cancer susceptibility (for T versus C: odds ratio (OR) = 1.12, 95 % confidence interval (95 %CI) 0.99–1.26, P $_{OR}$ = 0.069; for TT versus CC: OR = 1.31, 95 %CI 0.95–1.81, P $_{OR}$ = 0.100; for TT/CT versus CC: OR = 1.06, 95 %CI 0.95–1.18, P $_{OR}$ = 0.304; for TT versus CT/CC: OR = 1.29, 95 %CI 0.94–1.77, P $_{OR}$ = 0.112). After adjusting for heterogeneity, meta-analysis of those left 10 studies showed that there was an obvious association between NQO1 C609T polymorphism and bladder cancer susceptibility (for T versus C: OR = 1.18, 95 %CI 1.06–1.31, P $_{OR}$ = 0.003; for TT versus CC: OR = 1.47, 95 %CI 1.14–1.90, P $_{OR}$ = 0.003; for TT/CT versus CC: OR = 1.16, 95 %CI 1.01–1.34, P $_{OR}$ = 0.036; for TT versus CT/CC: OR = 1.39, 95 %CI 1.10–1.75, P $_{OR}$ = 0.006). There was low risk of publication bias. Therefore, our meta-analysis suggests that NQO1 C609T polymorphism is associated with bladder cancer susceptibility. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
