HIF1A and cervical carcinoma: The T allele of HIF-1α gene C1772T was significantly associated with increased cancer risk in three genetic models: TT+CT vs.CC (dominant model OR=1.23, 95%CI=1.03-1.47), TT vs. CT+CC (recessive model OR=2.51, 95%CI=1.54-4.09), TT vs. CC (homozygote comparison OR=2.02, 95%CI=1.21-3.39).In subgroup analysis, the frequency of the T variant was found to be significantly increased in cervical cancer, pancreatic cancer, head and neck cancer, renal cell carcinoma, Asian and female subgroups.
