Popis: | Emerging evidence indicates that O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a candidate for tumor suppression in several types of human tumors including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the correlation between MGMT hypermethylation and clinicopathological characteristics of CRC remains unclear. In this study, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to quantitatively evaluate the effects of MGMT hypermethylation on the incidence of CRC and clinicopathological characteristics. A comprehensive literature search was done from Web of Science, the Cochrane Library Database, PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, and the Chinese Biomedical Database for related research publications written in English and Chinese. Methodological quality of the studies was also evaluated. Analyses of pooled data were performed with Review Manager 5.2. Odds ratio (OR) and hazard ratio (HR) were calculated and summarized, respectively. Final analysis from 28 eligible studies was performed. MGMT hypermethylation is found to be significantly higher in CRC than in normal colorectal mucosa, the pooled OR from 13 studies including 1085 CRC and 899 normal colorectal mucosa, OR = 6.04, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 4.69-7.77, p |
