Many studies have established that T-lymphocyte antigen-4 (CTLA4) is a susceptible gene for Graves’ disease (GD). Also many studies showed the association between the CTLA4 exon-1 49A/G polymorphism and the risk of developing Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO) in GD patients. But those results were inconsistent. In recent years many new studies were published which helped to shed light on the relationship of CTLA4 SNP49 with GO. So we performed the meta-analysis to explore the association between the SNP49 and GO susceptibility in GD patients. Studies up to February 29, 2012, were searched by using PubMed. The odds ratio was used to evaluate the strength of the association. Altogether 12 case-control studies involving 2,505 participants were included in the meta-analysis. Results showed that the G allele was related to the increased risk of GO compared with the A allele under allelic genetic model (OR = 1.14, 95% CI: 1.14–1.72,P=0.001) in European subgroup. No publication bias was detected. Our results showed that the SNP49 polymorphism of CTLA4 gene was related to increased risk of GO.

BackgroundThere is no consensus on the effects that low birth weight, premature birth and intrauterine growth have on later depression.AimsTo review systematically the evidence on the relationship of low birth weight, smallness for gestational age (SGA) and premature birth with adult depression.MethodWe searched the literature for original studies assessing the effect of low birth weight, premature birth and SGA on adult depression. Separate meta-analyses were carried out for each exposure using random and fixed effects models. We evaluated the contribution of methodological covariates to heterogeneity using meta-regression.ResultsWe identified 14 studies evaluating low birth weight, 9 premature birth and 4 SGA. Low birth weight increased the odds of depression (OR = 1.39, 95% CI 1.21–1.60). Premature birth and SGA were not associated with depression, but publication bias might have underestimated the effect of the former and only four studies evaluated SGA.ConclusionsLow birth weight was associated with depression. Future studies evaluating premature birth and SGA are needed.

Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the association between PEAR1 polymorphisms and ischemic clinical outcomes. Materials & methods: We searched the electronic database for articles on the relationship of PEAR1 SNPs and ischemic events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) up to October 2020. Results: A total of 9914 patients with CAD from six studies focusing on 12 SNPs of PEAR1 were included in this study. The A allele of rs12041331 were associated with ischemic events (odds ratio: 1.40; 95% CI: 1.04–1.88; p = 0.03). The AA homozygotes of rs2768759 was related to a higher risk of ischemic events than carriers of the C allele (odds ratio: 2.08; 95% CI: 1.09–3.97; p = 0.03). Conclusion: PEAR1 rs12041331 and rs2768759 are significantly associated with ischemic events in patients with CAD.
