“…Nonetheless, several other studies have found contradictory results in the form of no association between GSTP1-313 A > G and endometriosis risk in some other populations like that done among Chinese [15], Japanese [16], Italian [17], Indian [20] and Korean [22] subjects. A recent meta-analysis study showed that GSTP1-313 A > G polymorphism was not associated with endometriosis risk in the overall population (A vs. G: OR = 1.02, P = 0.511) [24]. These contradictory results might be attributed to different ethnic origins, environmental difference in addition to problems related to research methodologies like the adequacy of sample size and proper diagnostic methods.…”

“…The GST gene is one of the important genes which has a role in regulate immune, metabolism, endocrine and are closely related to the susceptibility with endometrial carcinoma [24]. GSTP1 is the most important member of GST family which contributes to the detoxification of electrophilic compounds by glutathione conjugation [11].…”

“…We consider sample size as an important factor contributing to the above discrepancy. Small-study bias is not an emerging event when performing genetic association studies [26]. The current result of IL-10 -819 loci polymorphism may be attributed to race.…”

“…Two meta-analysis evaluated the glutathione S-transferase variations in endometriosis women ( 13 , 34 ). Guo et al performed a meta-analysis involving 14 studies investigating GSTM1 and nine GSTT1 studies.…”

“…However, there was evidence of publication bias in this meta- analysis, indicating that the size of the increased risk associated with the GSTT1 deletion variant may actually be smaller or non- existent ( 9 ). In a recent meta- analysis by Chen et al they concluded that the GSTP1 313 A/G may not be associated with endometriosis risk ( 34 ).…”
