Abstract
Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has exhibited an increasing incidence worldwide in recent years, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis methods. This study aimed to assess the influence of CD44 gene polymorphism rs187115 on CRC susceptibility. Material and Methods: The study encompassed 470 CRC patients and 165 healthy controls. Genotyping of all biological blood samples was conducted using the TaqMan assay on the ABI 7500 Real Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems, USA). Results: The genotyping revealed that carriers of the variant G allele, including the genotypes AG and GG, exhibited a heightened risk of CRC occurrence, with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.89 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.57-1.97; p = 0.047) compared to those carrying the AA genotype. Conclusions: The findings underscore the potential utility of CD44 rs187115 polymorphisms as a novel predictive biomarker for CRC prognosis.
期刊介绍：
Chirurgia is a bimonthly journal. In Chirurgia, original papers in the area of general surgery which neither
appeared, nor were sent for publication in other periodicals, can be published. You can send original articles,
new surgical techniques, or comprehensive general reports on surgical topics, clinical case presentations and,
depending on publication space, - reviews of some articles of general interest to surgeons from other publications.
Chirurgia is also a place for sharing information about the activity of various branches of the Romanian Society of
Surgery, information on Congresses and Symposiums organized by the Romanian Society of Surgery and
participation notes in other scientific meetings.
Letters to the editor: Letters commenting on papers published in Chirurgia are welcomed. They should contain
substantive ideas and commentaries supported by appropriate data, and should not exceed 2 pages. Please
submit these letters to the editor through our online system.
