VEGFA and gastric cancer: Further logistic regression analysis revealed that, of the six SNPs examined, only the VEGF -634CG heterozygous and the combined -634CG+CC variant genotypes were associated with a significantly elevated risk of gastric cancer (adjusted OR = 1.88, 95% CI = 1.24-2.86 and adjusted OR = 1.56, 95% CI = 1.07-2.27, respectively).
