Figure 2. Association of the ESR2 rs1271572 with invasive ovarian carcinoma risk in subgroups by age.

Figure 2

Forest plot of the ORs and 95% CIs for invasive ovarian carcinoma risk associated with carriage of the ESR2 rs1271572 TT genotype versus GG/GT genotypes (recessive genetic model) in subgroups of women ≤50 (A) versus > 50 years (B) of age. Pooleda OR for all studies combined among women ≤50 years was 1.35 (95% CI: 1.12–1.62; p = 0.002); p for heterogeneity among studies = 0.19. Pooledb OR for all studies excluding HAW was 1.34 (95% CI: 1.11–1.61; p = 0.009); p for heterogeneity among studies = 0.29. P for interaction between ESR2 rs1271572 and age = 0.02.
