| Abstract | Although the MSH6 G39E polymorphism is considered to be a biomarker of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), many studies have also found that it may be associated with increased risks of lung, breast, and pancreatic cancers, with inconsistent estimated risks. Here, we performed a comprehensive meta-analysis to assess the associations. We searched published literature from MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CNKI for eligible publications up to Dec. 5, 2013. The final meta-analysis included 10 published studies of 7,046 cases and 34,554 controls for MSH6 G39E. Overall, no significant association was detected between MSH6 G39E and cancer risk (GE + EE vs. GG: OR=0.92, 95 % CI=0.81-1.04). Further stratifications, however, showed the MSH6 G39E variant is associated with a decreased risk for cancer in population-based studies (GE + EE vs. GG: OR=0.80, 95 % CI=0.60-0.91), and in studies having utilizing large sample sizes (GE + EE vs. GG: OR=0.87, 95 % CI=0.85-0.99). No potential publication bias was found among studies. The present meta-analysis identified some statistical evidence for an association between the MSH6 G39E polymorphism and risk of cancer. However, this finding warrants additional validation in large and well-designed prospective studies in the future. |

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.
