No studies to date have attempted to find out the combined risks of all the four polymorphisms from FasR (−1377G > A, −670A > G), FasL (−844 T > C) and CASP8 (−652 6 N ins/del) genes on cervical cancer, HPV infection or HSV-2 infection in any population. The gene discussed is FASLG; the disease is cervical cancer.
