For instance, a meta-analysis identified 19 SNPs as significantly associated with thyroid cancer susceptibility, out of which strong associations were identified for 7 SNPs: POU5F1B rs6983267, FOXE1 rs966423, TERT rs2736100, NKX2-1 rs944289, FOXE1 rs1867277, FOXE1 rs2439302, and RET rs1799939 [18]. This evidence concerns the gene FOXE1 and thyroid cancer.
