However, no significant associations between these two SNPs and NSCLC survival were found in our study, which was consistent with recent data that suggested the lack of associations between TNF-α-308 G/A or TNF-α-1031 T>C and the prognosis of several other cancers, including gastric cancer [42], colorectal cancer [43], Hodgkin's lymphoma [44], and breast cancer [45]. The gene discussed is TNF; the disease is Hodgkins lymphoma.
