Core Tip	To explore the association of the cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) (-1195G>A) polymorphism with gastrointestinal cancers, we conducted this retrospective study. According to this meta-analysis, we discovered that the COX-2 (-1195G>A) polymorphism may be a risk factor for gastrointestinal cancers and may increase the risk of gastrointestinal cancers in the Asian population. Furthermore, we applied a false-positive report probability to make the results more credible. Our findings indicated that focusing on the COX-2 (-1195G>A) polymorphism to prevent gastrointestinal cancers may be viable.
