Meta-analysis of the rs231775 locus polymorphism in the CTLA-4 gene and the susceptibility to Graves' disease in children.

The aim of this study was to systematically evaluate the correlation between the rs231775 locus polymorphism in the cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene and genetic susceptibility to Graves' disease (GD) in children. Some studies found that the CTLA-4 gene polymorphism was associated with GD in children. The data up to February 2022 were retrieved from the databases.

Risk factors for oxaliplatin-induced hypersensitivity reaction in patients with colorectal cancer.

Objective: Hypersensitivity reactions with oxaliplatin (OXA) have attracted much attention. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors for OXA-induced hypersensitivity reaction in Chinese colorectal cancer patients through a single-center retrospective investigation.

Methods: The information from 459 colorectal cancer patients treated with OXA in a hospital was collected retrospectively to explore the risk factors for OXA-induced hypersensitivity reaction.
