Background And Aim: Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer presents a significant worldwide health burden, influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. This study endeavors to explore the combined effects of the , , , and genes that contribute to the heightened risk of GI cancer, shedding light on their combined influence on cancer susceptibility.
Materials And Methods: A total of 200 histologically confirmed cases of GI cancer and an equal number of controls were selected to examine genetic polymorphisms within the , , , and genes using the polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).

Objective: This research conducted multi-index comprehensive evaluations of the immunotherapeutic efficacy and response in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: Forty-five patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) wild-type advanced NSCLC who received immunotherapy were included. Immunohistochemistry was adopted to detect the expression levels of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) with X-ray cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1) and excision repair cross-complementing group 1 (ERCC1) proteins in tumor tissues.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a deadly malignancy of the liver, is considered the third leading reason behind cancer deaths. It is more frequent in men than in women of ages above 50. Liver disease, leading to liver cirrhosis (LC), is mostly caused by alcoholism abuse, reaction diseases of the liver, or viral hepatitis B or C infection.

Background: Reduced efficiency of DNA repair systems has long been a suspected factor in increasing the risk of cancer.
Objective: In this work we investigate influence of three selected polymorphisms of DNA repair gene XRCC1 and level of oxidative damage (measured as level of 8-oxo-guanine) on modulation of the risk of HNSCC.
Methods: In group of 359 patients with HNSCC (diagnosed with OSCC) the occurrence of polymorphic variants in Arg399Gln, Arg280His and Arg194Trp of XRCC1 were studied with TaqMan technique.
