The presence of a polymorphic NOS3*A allele (26.2% vs. 24.6%; OR: 1.01; 95% CI: 0.6-2.0; P = 0.9) or a polymorphic NOS3 exon 7 Glu298Asp allele (41.2% vs. 53.7%; OR: 0.6; 95% CI: 0.3-1.0; P = 0.09) was not associated with vulvar cancer.
The rare allele (A) of SNP rs2239704 in the 5' UTR of the LTA gene was significantly associated with increased risks of cervical cancer (OR=1.31, 95% CI: 1.15-1.50; adjusted p-value: 0.013) and vulvar cancer (OR=1.51, 95% CI: 1.30-1.75; adjusted p-value: 1.9 × 10(-5) ).
