“…There are, in addition, several other factors which may have contributed to a lack of conformity in results obtained in different studies. For example, interlaboratory variation in protocols for the analysis of codon 72 status could result in misclassification (25) while methodology for the detection of HPV DNA also varies widely. In our study the 98% incidence of HPV‐positive tumors accords with recent suggestions that HPV is universally present in cervical tumors (26) .…”

“…Storey et al found an association between the majority allele, arginine (G) form of p53, and cervical cancer development and proposed that this genotype is more susceptible to HPV E6-mediated degradation [24]. Since then, there have been many reports on this TP53 polymorphism and risk for cervical cancer and the results are largely contradictory [25,26]. The frequency of TP53 codon 72 polymorphism and its relationship with HPV infection and cervical cancer is still unknown among Saudi women.…”

“…These characteristics could be responsible for the great variability of the frequencies reported, even within the same population [16]. In this sense, Makni [8] demonstrated a great inter-laboratory variation, however, after the exclusion of discordant genotypes an increasing association was found. DHPLC is a highly sensitive technique that detects sequence variations.…”

“…At present, several epidemiological studies on polymorphisms have shown controversial results, probably due to ethnical differences, inadequate selection of cases and controls, technical sensitivity and inter-laboratory variations [7,8]. Makni et al [8] reported that after the exclusion of discordant TP53 genotypes between laboratories, there was an increased association of the 72Arg/Arg genotype with CC and suggested that the misclassification consequent to inter-laboratory variation may affect the ability to detect the association.…”
