ObjectiveTo systematically review the association between-174G/C polymorphism in interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene and the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). MethodsWe electronically searched PubMed, EMbase, CBM, WanFang Data, CNKI and VIP for case-control studies on the correlation between IL-6 gene-174G/C polymorphism and the risk of COPD. Two reviewers independently screened the studies according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and extracted data. Then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 5 studies involving 487 COPD cases and 786 controls were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, there was no significant association between IL-6 gene SNP-174G/C and risks of COPD:GC+CC vs. GG:OR=1.01, 95%CI 0.76 to 1.34, P=0.95; CC vs. GC+GG:OR=1.04, 95%CI 0.70 to 1.54, P=0.85:CC vs. GG:OR=1.05, 95%CI 0.69 to 1.61, P=0.81; GC vs. GG:OR=1.00, 95%CI 0.74 to 1.35, P=0.99; C vs. G:OR=1.02, 95%CI 0.83 to 1.24, P=0.88. ConclusionIL-6-174G/C gene polymorphism may not be a risk factor that causes COPD.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the association between glutathione S-transferase pi (GSTP1) Ile105Val (A/G) and the risk of cutaneous melanoma. MethodWe searched PubMed, EMbase, CNKI and WanFang Data to identify case-control studies which investigated the association between GSPT1 Ile105Val (A/G) polymorphism and the risk of cutaneous melanoma from their inception to June 31th 2016. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of 4 case-control studies involving 978 cutaneous melanoma cases and 796 controls were included. The results showed that: the GSPT1 Ile105Val (A/G) polymorphism was significantly associated with the risk of cutaneous melanoma in the dominant model (GG+GA vs. AA: OR=1.22, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.48, P=0.04), but no significant association was found in the recessive model, heterozygote model, and homozygote model (GG vs. CA+AA: OR=1.18, 95%CI 0.86 to 1.60, P=0.30; GA vs. AA: OR=1.20, 95%CI 0.98 to 1.47, P=0.08; GG vs. AA: OR=1.28, 95%CI 0.92 to 1.77, P=0.14). ConclusionCurrent evidence shows, The GSTP1 Ile105Val (A/G) polymorphism is associated with the risk of cutaneous melanoma. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality large-scale studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To study the association between the insertion(I)/deletion(D) polymorphism of the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene intron 16 (ACE/ID) and diabetic nephropathy (DN) among Chinese population by Meta-analysis. Methods Odds ratios of ACE/ID genotype distributions were analyzed in NIDDM or IDDM patients with and without DN. All the related studies on ACE/ID polymorphism and DN were identified while poor-qualified studies were excluded, and the risk of publication bias was estiMetad. The Meta-analysis software, RevMan 3.1, was applied for investigating heterogeneity among individual studies and summarizing effects across studies by proper statistical methods. Result The pooled odds ratios (with 95%CI) of DD vs ID + II and II vs ID + DD were 2.17 (1.74-2.70) and 0.49 (0.36-0.66) in NIDDM (12 studies), 3.92 (2.05-7.47) and 0.19 (0.09-0.43) in IDDM (3 studies) respectively (Plt;0.01). Conclusion In both NIDDM and IDDM, ACE/ID polymorphism is believed to be associated with diabetic nephropathy. The number of DN patients with DD genotype has been increased while that with II genotype decreased.
Objective To reveal the association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of v-maf musculoaponeurotic fibrosarcoma oncogene homolog B (MAFB) gene rs17820943 locus and non-syndromic cleft l ip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) in the southern Chinese Han population. Methods Genotyping of MAFB gene rs17820943 polymorphism was carried out in 300 patients with NSCL/P, 354 normal controls, and an additional 168 case-parent trios with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-fl ight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Then based on the genotypingresults, both a case-control association study and a case-parent trio association study were performed. Results Significant differences were found in the allele and genotype frequencies of rs17820943 locus between case and control groups (Pallele=0.001 and Pgenotype=0.002, respectively). To be specific, the odds radio (OR) values and 95% confidence interval (95%CI) of allele T (frequencies of cases ∶ controls = 0.358 ∶ 0.448) and genotype TT (frequencies of cases ∶ controls = 0.110 ∶ 0.195) were ORT = 0.69 (95%CI: 0.55-0.86) and ORTT = 0.43 (95%CI: 0.26-0.70), respectively. Subsequent case-parent trio analysis also indicated an association between MAFB rs17820943 variant and the risk of NSCL/P (ORT vs. C = 0.55, 95%CI: 0.41-0.75, P value of transmission disequilibrium test was 0.000). Conclusion Polymorphism of MAFB gene rs17820943 locus is associated with NSCL/P in the southern Chinese Han population; MAFB rs17820943 variant may be a susceptible gene of NSCL/P.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the association between human leukocyte antigen DQ (HLA-DQ) gene rs2856718A>G, rs9275572A>G polymorphisms and the risk of chronic hepatitis B. MethodsPubMed, EMbase, CBM, WanFang Data, CNKI and VIP databases were systematically searched from inception to April 2015 to collect case-control studies about HLA-DQ gene polymorphisms and the risk of chronic hepatitis B. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software, and Stata 12.0 software was used for sensitivity and publication bias analysis. ResultsA total of 6 papers involving 8 case-control studies were included, which involved 3 690 cases and 6 267 controls. The results of meta-analysis showed that:the rs2856718A>G polymorphism was associated with the decreased risk of chronic hepatitis B (AG+GG vs. AA:OR=0.63, 95%CI 0.51 to 0.78, P=0.000; GG vs. AG+AA:OR=0.69, 95%CI 0.61 to 0.79, P=0.000; GG vs. AA:OR=0.56, 95%CI 0.48 to 0.64, P=0.000; GA vs. AA:OR=0.64, 95%CI 0.47 to 0.88, P=0.006; G vs. A:OR=0.74, 95%CI 0.68 to 0.79, P=0.000). The rs9275572A>G polymorphism was not associated with the risk of chronic hepatitis B (AG+GG vs. AA:OR=1.11, 95%CI 0.55 to 2.23, P=0.770; GG vs. AG+AA:OR=1.10, 95%CI 0.84 to 1.45, P=0.500; GG vs. AA:OR=1.14, 95%CI 0.54 to 2.41, P=0.730; AG vs. AA:OR=1.06, 95%CI 0.56 to 2.02, P=0.860; G vs. A:OR=1.11, 95%CI 0.83 to 1.48, P=0.490). ConclusionHLA-DQ gene rs2856718 A>G polymorphism is significantly associated with decreased risk of chronic hepatitis B, but the rs9271319 A>G polymorphism is not associated with the risk of chronic hepatitis B.
Objective To explore the causal relationship between gut microbiota and urinary tract infections (UTI) using data from genome-wide association studies. Methods The gut microbiota data were sourced from the MiBioGen consortium, comprising genetic variables from 18 340 individuals. UTI data (ieu-b-5.65) were derived from the UK Biobank. Six methods including inverse variance weighted (IVW), Mendelian randomization (MR)-Egger, maximum likelihood, simple mode, weighted mode, and weighted median were employed for two-sample MR analysis on these datasets. Additionally, MR-PRESSO was used to detect and correct for heterogeneity and outliers in the analysis. Cochran’s Q test and leave-one-out analysis were applied to assess potential heterogeneity and multiple effects. Furthermore, reverse MR analysis was conducted to investigate causal relationships between UTI and gut microbiota. Results According to IVW method analysis results, bacterial genera Eggerthella (OR=1.08, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.16, P=0.034) and Ruminococcaceae (UCG005) (OR=1.10, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.20, P=0.022) were found to increase the risk of UTI, while Defluviitaleaceae (UCG011) (OR=0.90, 95%CI 0.82 to 0.99, P=0.022) appeared to decrease it. Reverse MR analysis did not reveal a significant effect of UTI on these three bacterial genera. Our study found no evidence of heterogeneity or pleiotropy based on the results of Cochran’s Q test, MR-Egger, and MR-PRESSO global test. Conclusion In this MR study, we demonstrate a causal association between Eggerthella, Ruminococcaceae, Defluvitalaceae and the risk of urinary tract infections.
Objective To evaluate the relationship between genetic polymorphism of ApoE and Alzheimer’s disease in Chinese population. Methods Such databases as PubMed, EBSCO, CNKI, CBM, and WangFang Data were searched from their establishment to December 2010 to collect the literature about the relationship between genetic polymorphism of ApoE and Alzheimer’s disease in Chinese population. RevMan 5.0 was adopted to conduct consistency check and data merging, and to evaluate publication bias. Results ApoEε4 was the risky allele (Plt;0.05) in Chinese population, and its pooled odds ratios and 95%CI was 3.53 (2.49 to 5.00). ApoEε3 was the protective alleles (Plt;0.05) in Chinese population, and its pooled odds ratios and 95%CI was 0.52 (0.40 to 0.68). ApoEε4/ε4, ApoEε4/ε3, and ApoEε4/ε2 were the risky genotypes (all Plt;0.05) in Chinese population, and their pooled odds ratios and 95%CI were 10.17 (4.25 to 24.19), 2.57 (2.04 to 3.25), and 1.94 (1.13 to 3.34), respectively. ApoEε3/ε3 was the protective genotype (Plt;0.05) in Chinese population, and its pooled odds ratios and 95%CI was 0.67 (0.57 to 0.77). Conclusion In Chinese population, some ApoE alleles and genotypes are associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
