This study aimed to examine associations of lncRNA ANRIL (rs17694493, rs1333045, rs1011970), H19 (rs217727), MALAT1 (rs3200401), MEG3 (rs1054000), and HOTAIR (rs17840857) polymorphisms with gastric cancer and atrophic gastritis in European population. Here, CDKN2B-AS1 is linked to chronic atrophic gastritis.
