“…This is in contrast to another study in which it was reported that the GSTM1 genotype was associated with an increased risk of dysmenorrhea [23]. However, more recent studies have reported results similar to our findings, although these studies focused on the association of GST-related genes with endometriosis [9,10,31,32]. Nevertheless, the possibility of a false-negative result due to the low statistical power of our analysis cannot be excluded, and further study with a larger sample size will be necessary.…”

“…The most of the studies have been monitoring the association of GSTP1 polymorphism in codon 105 and lung cancer did not prove significant risk of GSTP1 Val genotype (28, 33,[44][45][46][47][48][49][50]. Not even in our study was found significant association between polymorphism of GSTP1 and AC or SCC formation.…”

“…Simultaneous analysis of the GSTM1 and GSTP1 loci was conducted for bladder cancer in only one study from Germany (Steinho et al 2000) in which an increased risk was not observed. On the other hand, in a Japanese lung cancer study (Kihara et al 1999) and a U.S. breast cancer study (Helzlsouer et al 1998) where the high-risk genotypes of the GSTM1 and GSTP1 loci were analysed simultaneously, an increased risk on combination of high-risk genotypes was detected. Interestingly, when we combined the three risk genotypes, the odds ratio ®gure increases to eight.…”
