Purpose
Studies investigating the association between PTPN22 gene C1858T polymorphism and type 1 diabetes (T1D) susceptibility among Caucasian population have reported conflicting results. To investigate this inconsistency, we performed a meta-analysis of all available studies dealing with the relationship between the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism and T1D.Methods
Databases including PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE were searched to find relevant studies. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of association.Results
In total, 33 population-based studies with 22, 485 cases and 35, 292 controls, 9 family-based studies involving 7276 families were included. Under the random-effects model, the per-allele overall OR of the C1858T polymorphism for T1D was 1.89 (95% CI: 1.76–2.02, P < 10− 5) by pooling all available case–control studies. In addition, we found significant evidence for overtransmission of the risk T allele in family-based studies (overall OR TDT = 1.58, 95% CI: 1.43–1.74; P < 10− 5). The summary OR from case–control and family-based association studies was 1.81 (95% CI: 1.70–1.93, P < 10− 5).Conclusions
In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that C1858T polymorphism in PTPN22 is associated with elevated T1D risk among Caucasian population. 相似文献2.

Objective
The PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism is associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA); nonetheless, the association is weaker or absent in some southern European populations. The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between the PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism and RA in Italian subjects and to compare our results with those of other European countries, carrying out a meta-analysis of European data.Methods
A total of 396 RA cases and 477 controls, all of Italic ancestry, were genotyped for PTPN22 rs2476601 polymorphism. Patients were tested for autoantibodies positivity. The meta-analysis was performed on 23 selected studies.Results
The PTPN22 T1858 allele was significantly more frequent in RA patients compared to controls (5.7% vs. 3.7%, p = 0.045). No clear relationship arose with the autoantibodies tested. The 1858T allele frequency in Italian RA patients was lower than the one described in northern European populations and similar to the frequency found in Spain, Turkey, Greece, Tunisia. A clear-cut North-South gradient arose from the analysis.Conclusions
The PTPN22 T1858 allele is associated with RA in the Italian population. A North-South gradient of the allele frequency seems to exist in Europe, with a lower prevalence of the mutation in the Mediterranean area. 相似文献3.
The aim of this study was to determine whether the protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 (PTPN22) C1858T polymorphism
confers susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in populations with different ethnicities. A meta-analysis was conducted
on the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism involving eighteen studies, which in total contained 20344 RA patients and 21828 controls.
Meta-analysis revealed an association between the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism T allele and RA in all subjects (odds ratio [OR] = 1.637,
95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.514–1.770, P < 0.001). After stratification by ethnicity, analysis indicated that the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism T allele was significantly
associated with RA in Europeans and Non-Europeans (OR = 1.587, 95% CI = 1.486–1.696, P < 0.001; OR = 1.748, 95% CI = 1.274–2.398, P < 0.001). Meta-analysis of the CT + TT genotype showed the same result patterns as that shown by the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism
T allele. Furthermore, a direct comparison between rheumatoid factor (RF)-positive and -negative subjects revealed a significant
association with the T allele in RA patients with RF, but not in subjects without RF. In conclusion, this meta-analysis confirms
that the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism is associated with RA susceptibility in different ethnic groups, especially in Europeans,
and the PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism T allele is significantly more prevalent in RF-positive patents than in RF-negative patients. 相似文献

BACKGROUND:
Leprosy (Hansen''s disease) is a human chronic granulomatous infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. Several types of study support a role for host genetics in susceptibility to leprosy. The protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) gene encodes an intracellular lymphoid protein tyrosine phosphatase that has been shown to play a negative regulatory role in T-cell activation.AIMS:
The aim of the present study was to find out associating the PTPN22 C1858T (R620W) polymorphism and leprosy in the Azeri population from Northwest Iran.MATERIALS AND METHODS:
A total of 153 treated leprosy patients and 197 healthy and ethnic matched controls entered this study. We used restriction fragment length polymorphism method to type PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism.RESULTS:
There was no significant difference in distribution of genotype and allele frequencies of PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism between leprosy patients and controls (P = 0.641 and 0.645; respectively). Moreover, there was no significant association between different clinical findings (karnofsky performance status score, clinical forms and manifestations of leprosy) and PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism. Data showed a low frequency of the minor (T) allele by 2.3% in leprosy and 1.5% in healthy individuals.CONCLUSIONS:
The PTPN22 C1858T (R620W) is not relevant in susceptibility to leprosy in the Azeri population of Northwest Iran. 相似文献5.

Objective
Methylene-tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is a key enzyme regulating folate metabolism and it is thought to influence DNA methylation and nucleic acid synthesis. Mutations in the MTHFR gene have been associated with several autoimmune disorders in previous studies. Alopecia areata (AA) is considered to be a tissue-specific autoimmune disease as the hair follicle has been targeted and antibodies to their own hair follicle structures have been developed. Since there is a common shared pathway between AA and other autoimmune disorders, we aimed to investigate a possible association between the MTHFR gene C677T mutation and AA susceptibility in the Turkish population.Methods
The study included 136 patients affected by AA and 130 healthy controls. Genomic DNA was isolated and genotyped using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay for the MTHFR gene C677T mutation.Results
The distributions of genotype and allele frequencies of MTHFR gene C677T mutation were statistically different between AA patients and the control group (p = 0.036 and p = 0.011, respectively). High differences were also observed when the patients and controls were compared according to CC versus CT + TT (p = 0.012). CT + TT genotypes and T allele of MTHFR gene C677T mutation were found to be a susceptibility factor for AA in the Turkish population.Conclusion
The results suggest that MTHFR gene C677T mutation may have an effect on the risk of alopecia areata in the Turkish population. This is the first study reporting the association between the MTHFR (C677T) genotype and AA. 相似文献6.

Aims
Cervical cancer is the third most frequent cancer in women worldwide, mostly treated with cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy. Since it is known that folate metabolism might interfere with cisplatin effectiveness, we intended to study the influence of the Gamma Glutamyl Hydrolase -401C > T polymorphism in treatment response in cervical cancer.Methods
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 167 patients with bulky cervical cancer submitted to cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy. The genotypes of GGH -401C > T SNP were determined by real-time PCR and statistical analysis was performed by χ2 test and survival analysis.Results
The genotypes of GGH-401C > T were significantly associated with the response to platinum-based chemoradiotherapy. Treatment response was higher in patients carrying the CC genotype, who presented a significant increased chance of treatment response (survival time in months/genotype: 91 for CC Vs 72 for CT/TT; p = 0.035, log rank test). A Cox regression analysis accordingly showed that the presence of the T allele was significantly linked to a worse treatment response (HR = 3.036; CI 95% 1.032-8.934, p = 0.044).Conclusions
The results of our study suggested the potential interest of GGH -401C > T as a predictive factor of the outcome of cervical carcinoma treated with cisplatin-based chemoradiotherapy. 相似文献7.
Objectives
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) may be a promising candidate gene for susceptibility and severity in RA. We aimed to determine whether TGF-β1 polymorphism is associated with susceptibility to RA and progression of joint destruction, as well as to identify the interaction between TGF-β1 polymorphism and biochemical risk factor.Methods
A total of 160 RA patients and 168 healthy unrelated controls were tested for the TGF-β1 (869C/T) polymorphism using polymerase chain reaction.Results
The TGF-β1 T allele was associated with susceptibility to RA. Within the RA group, TGF-β1 T allele carriers had a significant increased risk to develop osteoporosis (OR = 4.4, 95% CI = - 2. 4 – 8.1, P < 0.001), as well as more likely to develop bone erosion (OR = 1.7, 95% CI = 0. 99–2.7, P = 0. 034). Better prediction was achieved when the TGF-β1 TT genotype was used in combination with either elevated, rheumatoid factor (RF) or C-reactive protein (CRP) (OR = 6.8, 3.7 respectively). Also, they increased the risk to develop bone erosion in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (OR = 3.3, 9.8, P = 0.017, 0.001 respectively).Conclusion
Our results suggest that TGF-β1 TT genotype may determine the development of osteoporosis and bone erosion in RA. Also, our results points to a synergism between TGF-β1 TT genotype and elevated serum RF or elevated CRP that lead to the development of osteoporosis and bone erosion in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. 相似文献8.
Objective
The aim of this study was to determine whether ADAM33 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain 33) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to asthma in different populations.Methods
We performed a meta-analysis on the association between the ADAM33 S2, ST+4, F+1, S1, and V4 polymorphisms and asthma.Results
Thirteen studies in ten reports, which included 4942 patients and 7933 controls, were available for the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis stratified by ethnicity indicated an association between the ADAM33 S2 2 allele and asthma in Europeans (OR = 0.912, 95% CI = 0.851–0.977, p = 0.009). Meta-analysis revealed an association between asthma and the ADAM33 ST+4 2 allele (OR = 0.783, 95% CI = 0.762–0.999, p = 0.048). Stratification by ethnicity indicated an association between the ADAM33 ST+4 polymorphism and asthma in Asians. Stratification by age indicated an association between the ADAM33 ST+4 2 allele and asthma in adults (OR = 0.863, 95% CI = 0.782–0.964, p = 0.008). However, no association was found between asthma and the ADAM33 F+1, S1, and V4 polymorphisms.Conclusions
This meta-analysis demonstrates that the ADAM33 S2 polymorphism confers susceptibility to asthma in Europeans and the ADAM33 ST+4 polymorphism is associated with asthma in Asians and adults. 相似文献9.
Purpose
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated in progression and metastases of different tumors. The balance between the MMPs and their natural inhibitors (tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases; TIMP) seem to be an important factor related to its role. The purpose of this study was to evaluate polymorphisms in the MMP-3 and TIMP-3 genes for their associations with prostate cancer (PCa) risk in North Indians.Materials and methods
Genotypes were determined by PCR-RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) method in 150 PCa patients and 200 age matched controls of similar ethnicity.Results
We found significant association in the MMP-3(1171)5A/6A and TIMP-3 (1298) C/T polymorphism with PCa risk. Variant genotype (5A/5A) of MMP-3(1171)5A/6A polymorphism had a high PCa risk (p = 0.037, OR = 3.52, 95%CI = 1.08–11.5). Individuals with TIMP-3 (1298) CT genotype as well as T allele showed reduced risk of PCa (p < 0.001; OR = 0.31; 95%CI = 0.18–0.52, and p = 0.001; OR = 0.49; 95%CI = 0.32–0.75). This effect was even more evident in case of T allele carrier (CT + TT) (p < 0.001; OR = 0.36; 95%CI = 0.22–0.59). Overall no significant association was observed statistically in MMP-3 and TIMP-3 with any of the grading stages and smoking habits in PCa. Haplotype analysis of MMP-3 showed that A-5A-A was associated with three folds (OR = 3.06; 95%CI = 1.71–5.47; p < 0.001) increased risk in PCa patients.Conclusion
This is the first reported association between polymorphisms in the MMP-3 and TIMP-3 gene and PCa risk and supports the hypothesis that the protease/antiprotease balance has an important role. Due to the small sample size further investigations need to be done to prove a statistical significant correlation between the MMP/TIMP expression and clinicopathological parameters. 相似文献10.
Background
Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the X-ray cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene have been shown to influence DNA repair and to modify cancer susceptibility. To investigate the role of these loci further, we examined the association of three XRCC1 polymorphisms with the risk of gliomas in a Han population in northeastern China.Methods
Using a PCR–RFLP method, XRCC1 Arg194Trp, Arg280His and Arg399Gln were genotyped in 624 glioma patients and 580 healthy controls.Results
Significant differences in the distribution of the Arg399Gln allele were detected between glioma patients and healthy controls by a logistic regression analysis (OR = 1.35, 95%CI 1.17–1.68, P = 0.001). Our data also revealed that the Arg399Gln variant (allele A) carriers had an increased glioma risk compared to the wild-type (allele G) homozygous carriers (OR = 1.40, 95%CI 1.12–1.76, P = 0.003).Conclusions
These results suggest that the XRCC1 Arg399Gln might influence the risk of developing glioma in a Han population in northeastern Chinese. 相似文献11.

Background
The aim of this study was to investigate the individual or combined effects of PPARA-L162V, PPARG-C161T and APOE polymorphisms on hyperlipidemia in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients.Methods
Our study included 223 patients with CHD (103 with type 2 diabetes (T2DM), 120 without diabetes) and 101 controls. All genotypes were determined by PCR–RFLP technique.Results
Genotypic and allelic distributions of PPARA-L162V polymorphism were similar between study and control groups (p > 0.05). The serum total-cholesterol (TC) and LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were higher in PPARA-V162 allele carriers in non-diabetic CHD patients (p = 0.007 and p = 0.038, respectively). The increasing effect of the PPARA-V162 allele on serum TC and LDL-C levels was weakened with the presence of PPARG-161T allele in the non-diabetic CHD patients. The ApoE4–PPARA-V162 allelic combination of the ApoE/PPARA genes was found to be more frequent in diabetic CHD patients independent of serum lipids (p = 0.035).Conclusions
The PPARA V162 allele has an increasing effect on TC and LDL-C levels and this effect was reduced by carrying PPARG T161 allele in non-diabetic CHD patients. On the other hand, the V162 allele may be associated with an increased risk of CHD in diabetic CHD patients due to the presence of ApoE4 allele independent of serum lipids. We suggest that the PPARA L162V polymorphism may have diverse effects on serum lipids and CHD risk depends on the presence of T2DM. 相似文献12.

Background
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is an inflammatory process and a major cause of mortality and morbidity. The (heat shock protein70-2) HSP70-2 gene is reported to be associated with coronary artery disease possibly by affecting the regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α. The association between CAD and the HSP70-2 gene + 1267A>G polymorphism has been studied in some populations but there are no data about this association in the Iranian population.Aim
We have investigated the association between the HSP70-2 gene + 1267A>G polymorphism and angiographically defined CAD within an Iranian population.Methods
We determined the presence of the HSP70-2 gene + 1267A>G polymorphism in 628 patients with CAD and 307 healthy individuals using PCR-RFLP. Of the patients, 433 (68%) had > 50% stenosis (CAD +) and the remaining 195 patients had < 50% stenosis (CAD −), based on coronary angiography. Angiogram positive patients were subdivided into three groups: those with single (n = 113), double (n = 134), and triple vessels (n = 186) disease.Results
A significant higher frequency of AG + GG genotypes (G allele carriers) was observed in angiogram positive and angiogram negative groups compared to controls in a dominant analysis model of the HSP70-2 gene + 1267A>G position (51.2 vs. 43.2, P = 0.002, OR = 1.37) (51.0 vs. 43.2, P = 0.01, OR = 1.37). The allele frequency of the HSP70-2 G was also significantly higher in angiogram positive and angiogram negative groups compared to the control group (51.2 vs. 43.2, P = 0.002, OR = 1.37) (51.0 vs. 43.2, P = 0.01, OR = 1.37).Conclusion
These results suggest that HSP70-2 + 1267 polymorphism may influence the risk of CAD in Iranian population, however further studies are needed to clarify the role of other HSP70-2 gene polymorphisms in the pathogenesis of the CAD. 相似文献13.

Background
Polymorphisms in apolipoprotein A5 gene (APOA5) have been associated with higher triglyceride levels in many populations. The aim of the study was to determine the allelic and genotypic distribution of the APOA5 − 1131T > C polymorphism and to identify the association of the genetic variant and the risk for dyslipidemia.Methods
We genotyped 109 dyslipidemic subjects and 107 controls. The total cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL-c were determined enzymatically. Comparison of means among groups was calculated by ANOVA. Significant differences among groups were evaluated by Student–Newman–Keuls test.Results
The minor allele C was more frequent in dyslipidemic subjects than controls (p = 0.019) and confers an increased individual risk for dyslipidemia (OR = 1.726, CI 95% = 1.095–2.721). The genotype analysis by gender showed that this allele was more frequent in dyslipidemic males (p = 0.037; OR = 2.050, CI 95% = 1.042–4.023). When participants were analyzed according to genotypes TT and TC/CC, C-carriers presented higher cholesterol and triglycerides levels than TT homozygous (p = 0.046 and 0.049, respectively).Conclusions
The allele C confers higher total cholesterol and triglycerides levels in dyslipidemic adults. The APOA5 − 1131T > C polymorphism is associated with dyslipidemia in male subjects. 相似文献14.

Aim
To analyze the effect of the two different versions of the manganese superoxide dismutase gene (SOD2) on sepsis. The SOD2 gene presents the 47C > T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP; ID: rs4880) which produces MnSOD with different activities. The − 9Val MnSOD (47T allele) is less efficient than the − 9Ala version (47C allele). During sepsis there are abundance of ROS, high SOD2 expression and excess of H2O2 synthesis. High concentrations of H2O2 could affect the sepsis scenario and/or the sepsis outcome.Methods
We determined the 47C > T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) frequencies in 529 critically ill patients with or without sepsis, facing outcome. To collect information on population frequencies, we obtained a pilot 47C > T genotypic and allelic frequencies in a random group of 139 healthy subjects.Results
We compared the 47C allele carriers (47CC + 47CT genotypes) with 47TT homozygotes and noticed a significant association between 47C allele carriers and septic shock in septic patients (P = 0.025). With an adjusted binary multivariate logistic regression, incorporating 47C > T SNP and the main clinical predictors, we showed high SOFA scores [P < 0.001, OR = 9.107 (95% CI = 5.319–15.592)] and 47C allele [P = 0.011, OR = 2.125 (95% CI = 1.190–3.794)] were significantly associated with septic shock outcome. With this information we presented a hypothesis suggesting that this negative outcome from sepsis is possibly explained by effects on cellular stress caused by 47C allele.Conclusion
In our population there was a significant higher frequency of septic shock in septic patients with the 47C allele of the SOD2 gene. This higher 47C allele frequency in septic patients with negative outcome could be explained by effects of higher activity MnSOD on cellular stress during the sepsis. 相似文献15.
Background
Emerging evidence showed that the common polymorphism (CYP1A2*1F, rs762551 C → A) in the promoter region of the CYP1A2 gene might be associated with susceptibility to cancer in humans. But individually published results were inconclusive. The aim of this meta-analysis is to investigate the association between CYP1A2*1F polymorphism and cancer risk.Methods
The Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science and Chinese BioMedical databases were searched for all articles published up to September 1st, 2012. Statistical analyses were performed using the STATA 12.0 software.Results
Forty-six case–control studies were included with a total of 22,993 cancer cases and 28,420 healthy controls. Meta-analysis results showed that the A allele of CYP1A2*1F polymorphism was associated with a decreased cancer risk (odds ratio [OR] = 0.92, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.87–0.98, P = 0.013). In the subgroup analysis by cancer types, the A allele of CYP1A2*1F polymorphism may increase the risk of breast cancer (OR = 1.05, 95% CI: 1.01–1.10, P = 0.024), and is also associated with a decreased risk of ovarian cancer (OR = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.54–0.89, P = 0.004). However, similar results were not found in lung, colorectal, bladder, endometrial, pancreatic and gastric cancers. Further subgroup analysis by ethnicity also showed a significant association between the A allele of CYP1A2*1F polymorphism and a decreased cancer risk among Caucasian populations (OR = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.84–0.98, P = 0.014); but no significant associations were observed among Asian populations.Conclusions
Results from the current meta-analysis indicate that the A allele of CYP1A2*1F polymorphism may be associated with breast and ovarian cancer risk, especially among Caucasian populations. 相似文献16.
The aim of this study was to explore whether cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA-4) +49 A/G, CT60 A/G, and protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 22 (PTPN22) 1858 C/T polymorphisms confer susceptibility to vitiligo. A meta-analysis was conducted of the associations between the CTLA-4 +49 A/G, CT60 and PTPN22 1858 C/T polymorphisms and vitiligo using; (1) allele contrast, (2) the recessive model, (3) the dominant model, and (4) the additive model. A total of 14 separate comparisons were considered in our meta-analysis consisting of 3,404 patients with vitiligo and 5,069 controls (nine studies with 1,252 cases and 2,152 controls for the CTLA-4 polymorphisms and five studies with 1,800 cases and 3,269 controls for the PTPN22 polymorphism). Meta-analysis showed no association between vitiligo and the CTLA-4 +49 A/G polymorphism in all study subjects (OR of the G allele = 1.186, 95 % CI = 0.893–1.575, p = 0.240) and in European (OR = 1.016, 95 % CI = 0.873–1.182, p = 0.838). However, meta-analysis of the CTLA-4 CT60 A/G polymorphism showed an association between vitiligo and the CTLA-4 CT60 G allele in all study subjects (OR = 1.267, 95 % CI = 1.110–1.447, p = 4.5 × 10?5) and in the European group (OR = 1.345, 95 % CI = 1.163–1.556, p = 6.3 × 10?6). Analysis using the recessive model and homozygote contrast showed the same pattern for the CTLA-4 CT60 G allele. Meta-analysis of the PTPN22 1858 C/T polymorphism showed an association between the PTPN22 T allele and vitiligo in all subjects (OR = 1.507, 95 % CI = 1.320–1.720, p < 1.0 × 10?8) and in European group (OR = 1.530, 95 % CI = 1.339–1.748, p < 1.0 × 10?8), but not in Asians (OR = 0.482, 95 % CI = 0.152–1.530, p = 0.216). Analysis using the recessive, dominant model, and homozygote contrast showed the same pattern for the PTPN22 T allele. This meta-analysis demonstrates that the CTLA-4 CT60 A/G polymorphism confers susceptibility to vitiligo in Europeans, but no association was found between the CTLA-4 +49 A/G polymorphism and vitiligo susceptibility. The PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism is associated with vitiligo susceptibility in European population. 相似文献

Aims
L-selectin belongs to selectin family of adhesion molecule and participates in the generation and development of type 2 diabetes (T2D). In this study, we evaluated the relationship between the P213S polymorphism of L-selectin gene and T2D and insulin resistance in the Chinese population.Methods
We genotyped P213S polymorphism in 801 patients with T2D and 834 healthy controls in the Chinese population using polymerase chain reaction–ligase detection reaction (PCR–LDR) technique. Plasma glucose, insulin, lipid, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and uric acid levels were measured by biochemical technique.Results
The frequency of 213PP genotype and P allele of the L-selectin gene in patients with T2D was significantly higher than that in controls (P = 0.007; P = 0.019, respectively). The relative risk of allele P suffered from T2D was 1.191 times higher than that of allele S. Moreover, the levels of FPG and HOMA-IR of PP and PS genotype carriers were significantly higher than those of SS genotype carriers in the T2D group (P < 0.05).Conclusion
These findings indicated that the P213S polymorphism of L‐selectin gene may contribute to susceptibility to T2D and insulin resistance in the Chinese population, and P allele appears to be a risk factor for T2D. 相似文献18.

Aim
HFE gene variants can cause hereditary hemochromatosis (HH) that often comes along with an increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). The goal of our study is to assess the contribution of four HFE gene variants to the risk of CHD.Methods and results
We conducted four meta-analyses of the studies examining the association between four HFE gene variants and the risk of CHD. A systematic search was conducted using MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Chinese Periodical.Results
Meta-analyses showed that HFE rs1799945-G allele was associated with a 6% increased risk of CHD (P = 0.02, odds ratio (OR) = 1.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.01–1.11). However, no association between the other three HFE gene variants (rs1800562, rs1800730, and rs9366637) and CHD risk was observed by the meta-analyses (all P values > 0.05). In addition, the results of our case–control study indicated that rs1800562 and rs1800730 were monomorphic, and that rs1799945 and rs9366637 were not associated with CHD in Han Chinese.Conclusions
Our meta-analysis suggested that a significant association existed between rs1799945 mutation and CHD, although this mutation was rare in Han Chinese. 相似文献19.
Background
Epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between Secretoglobin 1A member 1 (SCGB1A1) + 38A/G polymorphism and asthma, but the results remain inconclusive. The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis to investigate a more authentic association between SCGB1A1 + 38A/G polymorphism and asthma.Methods
Published literature from PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Embase databases were searched for eligible publications. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random or fixed-effect model according the between-study heterogeneity.Results
A total of 19 case-control studies in 18 articles were included in the meta-analysis, including 3191 cases and 5182 controls. We found that SCGB1A1 + 38A/G polymorphism was associated with a significantly increased risk of asthma risk when all studies were pooled in a dominant model (OR = 1.29; 95% CI 1.08–1.54; P = 0.005). The cumulative meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis further strengthened the stability of the result. Furthermore, publication bias was not detected.Conclusions
This study suggested that SCGB1A1 + 38A/G polymorphism was a risk factor for asthma. Further large and well-designed studies are needed to confirm this association. 相似文献20.
