1OR = odds ratio. ORs (95% CIs) were obtained from conditional logistic regression models. 2Confidence interval. 3XRCC1 wild genotype. 4XRCC1 heterozygous genotype. 5XRCC1 mutant genotype. 6XPD wild genotype. 7XPD heterozygous genotype. 8XPD mutant genotype. 9Genotype effects of both genes. 10Adjusted ORs (95% CIs) were obtained in conditional logistic regression models with adjustment for residence, gender, family history, chillies, X-ray, smoking, and dried foods.
