Accepted 20 August 2015 Abstract Background: Low penetrance genetic variants, primarily single nucleotide polymorph- isms, have substantial influence on colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility. Most CRCs develop from colorectal adenomas (CRA). Here we report the first comprehensive field synopsis that catalogues all genetic association studies on CRA, with a parallel online database [http://www.chs.med.ed.ac.uk/CRAgene/]. Methods: We performed a systematic review, reviewing 9750 titles, and then extracted data from 130 publications reporting on 181 polymorphisms in 74 genes. We conducted meta-analyses to derive summary effect estimates for 37 polymorphisms in 26 genes. We applied the Venice criteria and Bayesian False Discovery Probability (BFDP) to assess the levels of the credibility of associations. Results: We considered the association with the rs6983267 variant at 8q24 as ‘highly cred- ible’, reaching genome-wide statistical significance in at least one meta-analysis model. We identified ‘less credible’ associations (higher heterogeneity, lower statistical power, BFDP u003e 0.02) with a further four variants of four independent genes: MTHFR c.677Cu003eT p.A222V C The Author 2015; all rights reserved.
