Abstract

=26.183, P<0.01). Compared with patients who carried the TCA4/TCA4 genotype, those who carried the TCA3/TCA3 genotype were at an increased risk of ESCC, with the adjusted odds ratios being 4.06 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.69-9.74) in Kazakhs and 3.25 (95% CI, 1.25-8.45) in Hans. Our findings suggested that subjects who carried the TCA3/TCA3 genotype are at an increased risk of ESCC and metastasis compared with those who carried the TCA4/TCA4 genotype.
