| Abstract | Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are a large family of phase II detoxification enzymes that are expressed in many tissues and play critical roles in protecting hosts against cancer. The association of glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) polymorphism with susceptibility to colorectal cancer in Asians has not been well established. We performed a meta-analysis to quantitatively assess the association between GSTM1 polymorphism and colorectal cancer in Asians. We systematically searched the PubMed and Embase databases to identify the eligible studies. Finally, 17 eligible studies with 5,907 cases and 9,726 controls were included into the meta-analysis. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with its 95 % confidence intervals (95 %CI) was used to assess the association. The meta-analysis of those included studies suggests that GSTM1 null genotype was significantly associated with colorectal cancer risk in Asians (OR = 1.14, 95 %CI = 1.013–1.29, P = 0.03). The cumulative meta-analyses showed a trend of an obvious association between the GSTM1 null genotype and risk of colorectal cancer in Asians as information accumulated by year. Thus, there is an obvious association between the GSTM1 null genotype and risk of colorectal cancer in Asians. |

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.
