Aim: The mouse double minute 4 (MDM4) may contribute to tumorgenesis by inhibiting p53 tumor suppressor activity. This study was designed to investigate whether MDM4 polymorphisms could affect susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and the survival of ESCC patients in a population from Cixian high-incidence region of northern China, which has not been explored.
Methods: MDM4 rs1380576 and rs4245739 were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reaction (PCR-LDR) in 568 ESCC patients and 578 controls.
Results: Compared to rs1380576 C/C genotype, C/G genotype was associated with decreased risk of ESCC (odds ratio [OR] = 0.761, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.595-0.973). Compared to rs4245739 A/A genotype, A/C or C/C genotype was related to increased susceptibility to ESCC (OR = 1.551, 95% CI = 1.001-2.402). Individuals with GC haplotype had significantly higher risk of ESCC than those with CA or GA haplotype (OR = 1.598, 95% CI = 1.048-2.438). Neither rs1380576 nor rs4245739 influenced the survival of ESCC patients.
Conclusion: rs1380576 and rs4245739 may be used to predict susceptibility to ESCC for population in Cixian high-incidence region.

Background: Dietary patterns and symptoms research among Chinese with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and its precursor lesions is limited, especially as it relates to multiple food consumption and multiple co-occurring symptoms. The aim of our study was to identify the dietary patterns and severity of symptom classes with the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and its histological precursor lesions, and develop a risk prediction model for different stages of esophageal disease.
Methods: We analyzed data from a multicenter cross-sectional study carried out in ESCC high incidence areas between 2017 and 2018, which included 34,707 individuals aged 40-69 years.

Background: Despite research efforts, the causative factors that contribute to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in high-risk areas have not yet been understood. In this study, we, therefore, aimed to describe the risk factors associated with ESCC and its precursor lesions.
Methods: We performed an endoscopic examination of 44,857 individuals aged 40-69 years from five high incidence regions of China in 2017-2018.

DNA repair system plays a crucial role in maintaining genomic integrity and stability and in protecting against cancer. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) functions as a key enzyme in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that could affect the function or expression of PARP1 gene might be associated with the risk of cancer.

Objective: Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), as a key enzyme in the base excision repair pathway, plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis and progression. This study aimed to assess whether polymorphisms of PARP1 gene could be used as predictive biomarkers for the survival of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients from Cixian high-incidence region in northern China.
Methods: In 203 ESCC patients with survival information, PARP1 rs1136410 T/C and rs8679 T/C single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction ligase detection reaction (PCR-LDR) method.
