Journal ArticleDOI
Polymorphisms of DNA repair gene XRCC1 in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
Erich M. Sturgis,Edward J. Castillo,Lei Li,Rong Zheng,Susan A. Eicher,Gary L. Clayman,Sara S. Strom,Margaret R. Spitz,Qingyi Wei +8 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that a polymorphic XRCC1 DNA repair gene contributes to risk of developing SCCHN is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
XPD/ERCC2 polymorphisms and risk of head and neck cancer: a case-control analysis.
Erich M. Sturgis,Rong Zheng,Lei Li,Edward J. Castillo,Susan A. Eicher,Minhui Chen,Sara S. Strom,Margaret R. Spitz,Qingyi Wei +8 more
TL;DR: Results suggest a gene-environment interaction, but this did not reach statistical significance, and the findings are limited due to the relatively small numbers in the subgroups and need to be verified by further investigations.
Journal Article
Reduced DNA repair capacity in head and neck cancer patients.
TL;DR: It is suggested that individuals with reduced DRC may be at increased risk of developing HNC, as well as patients with newly diagnosed, previously untreated HNC and healthy controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical outcomes in head and neck cancer patients 80 years of age and older
TL;DR: Elderly patients over 80 years of age represent a growing population, some of whom have complex medical problems that are compounded by the presence of upper aerodigestive tract cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclin D1 polymorphism and risk for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck: a case–control study
Yuxin Zheng,Hongbing Shen,Erich M. Sturgis,Li E. Wang,Susan A. Eicher,Sara S. Strom,Marsha L. Frazier,Margaret R. Spitz,Qingyi Wei +8 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that the CCND1 polymorphism is associated with early onset ofSCCHN and contributes to susceptibility to SCCHN in this population.
