Herein, we aimed to update the previous results with a meta-analysis evaluating the association of XPA, XPB\/ERCC3, XPF\/ERCC4, and XPG\/ERCC5 polymorphisms with the susceptibility to HNC. Materials and Methods: PubMed\/Medline, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane Library databases were searched without any restrictions until 18 November 2023 to find relevant studies. The Review Manager 5.3 (RevMan 5.3) software was utilized to compute the effect sizes, which were expressed as the odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: Nineteen articles were involved in the systematic review and meta-analysis that included thirty-nine studies involving ten polymorphisms. The results reported that the CC genotype of rs17655 polymorphism showed a significantly decreased risk of HNC in the recessive model (OR: 0.89; 95%CI: 0.81, 0.99; p-value is 0.03). In addition, the CT genotype (OR: 0.65; 95%CI: 0.48, 0.89; p-value is 0.008) of the rs751402 polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk, and the T allele (OR: 1.28; 95%CI: 1.05, 1.57; p-value is 0.02), the TT (OR: 1.74; 95%CI: 1.10, 2.74; p-value is 0.02), and the TT + CT (OR: 2.22; 95%CI: 1.04, 4.74; p-value is 0.04) genotypes were associated with an increased risk of HNC. Conclusions: The analysis identified two polymorphisms, rs17655 and rs751402, as being significantly associated with the risk of HNC. The study underscored the influence of various factors, such as the type of cancer, ethnicity, source of control, and sample size on these associations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/medicina60030478","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,14]],"date-time":"2024-03-14T05:43:08Z","timestamp":1710394988000},"page":"478","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Relationship between XPA, XPB\/ERCC3, XPF\/ERCC4, and XPG\/ERCC5 Polymorphisms and the Susceptibility to Head and Neck Carcinoma: A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis, and Trial Sequential Analysis"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"60","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3982-5216","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohammad Moslem","family":"Imani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah 6713954658, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Masoumeh","family":"Basamtabar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah 6713954658, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sattar","family":"Akbari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthodontics, School of Dentistry, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah 6713954658, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7742-9372","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Edris","family":"Sadeghi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Biology Research Centre, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah 6714415185, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3586-3012","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Masoud","family":"Sadeghi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Biology Research Centre, Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences, Kermanshah 6714415185, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Barsouk, A., Aluru, J.S., Rawla, P., Saginala, K., and Barsouk, A.
