Association between circulating leptin concentration and G-2548A gene polymorphism in patients with breast cancer: a meta-analysis

Introduction The aim of this meta-analysis was to summarize the evidence on the serum/plasma leptin concentrations in breast cancer (BC) patients, as well as the associations between leptin G-2548A gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to BC. Material and methods Potentially relevant studies about...
