Genetic Variation in the <i>Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGFA</i>) Gene at rs13207351 Is Associated with Overall Survival of Patients with Head and Neck Cancer.

Assuming that A is the risk allele, the dominant genetic model confirmed that carriers of the VEGFA −1190 A allele (A+AG) had a higher risk of death compared to homozygotes for the G allele univariately (HR = 1.79, 95% CI: 1.02–3.12, p = 0.042), while marginal significance was retained after adjustment for age, stage, and surgery (HR = 1.72, 95% CI: 0.98–3.03, p = 0.059, Table 3 ). 3.
