Abstract Background: The relationship between antisense non-coding RNA (ncRNA) in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) polymorphisms and coronary artery disease (CAD) remains inconclusive. Thus, we conducted this meta-analysis to better evaluate the roles of ANRIL polymorphisms in CAD. Methods: Systematic literature search of PubMed, Medline, and Embase was performed to identify potential relevant articles. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the strength of association. Results: Fifteen studies were finally enrolled for analyses. Overall analyses suggested that rs1333040 (dominant model: P<0.0001; recessive model: P<0.0001; allele model: P<0.0001), rs1333049 (dominant model: P=0.02; allele model: P=0.02) and rs2383207 (additive model: P=0.004) polymorphisms were significantly associated with the risk of CAD. Further subgroup analyses showed that rs1333040, rs1333049, and rs2383207 polymorphisms were significantly correlated with the risk of CAD in East Asians, rs2383206 and rs10757274 polymorphisms were significantly correlated with the risk of CAD in West Asians, while rs2383206, rs10757274, and rs10757278 polymorphisms were significantly correlated with the risk of CAD in Caucasians. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that rs1333040, rs1333049, rs2383206, rs2383207, rs10757274, and rs10757278 polymorphisms might serve as genetic biomarkers of CAD in certain ethnicities.

Introduction. We examined whether the variant at chromosome 9p21, rs4977574, was associated with long-term cardiovascular mortality in Han Chinese patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).Methodology. Subjects who underwent coronary angiography for chest pain were consecutively enrolled. Fasting blood samples were collected for laboratory and genotype assessments. The information was correlated with data collected from the national death database.Results. There were 925 cases with CAD and 634 without CAD enrolled in the present study. The G allele conferred a significant increase in risk of CAD (odds ratio = 1.47,P=0.003in the dominant model; odds ratio = 1.36,P=0.018in the recessive model). During a median of 11 years (inter-quartile range between 5.2 and 12.5 years) of follow-up, neither the total nor the cardiovascular mortality was different among CAD subjects with different genotypes. Using Cox regression analysis, genotypes of rs4977574 still failed to predict cardiovascular mortality (hazard ratio = 1.25,P=0.138in the dominant model; hazard ratio = 1.05,P=0.729in the recessive model).Conclusions. The rs4977574 at chromosome 9p21 is associated with presence of CAD in Han Chinese. However, rs4977574 could not predict cardiovascular mortality in these CAD subjects during the eleven-year period of the study.

AbstractObjectiveTo explore the association between the variant M235 locus of angiotensinogen (AGT) gene, 584C/T locus of Endothelial lipase (EL) gene, and coronary artery disease (CAD) by meta-analysis.MethodsThe case-control studies on the association between AGT/EL gene polymorphism and CAD were collected through searching PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang database up to March 1, 2020. Stata 15.0 software was used for analysis.ResultsA total of 29 articles met the inclusion criteria. After analyzing, it was found that the M235T polymorphism of AGT gene was associated with the occurrence of CAD. In the allele model (T vs. M), OR=1.38 (P < 0.05). In other heredity, there was also statistically significant. Subgroup analysis indicated that except the heterozygous genetic model of the Chinese population, other genetic models of the Caucasian and Chinese population were also statistically significant. The 584C/T polymorphism of EL gene was associated with the occurrence of CAD, with OR=0.83 (P < 0.05) in the allele model (T vs. C) and OR=0.80 (P < 0.05) in the dominant gene model. Also, in the allele model of Caucasian subgroup, OR=0.83 (P < 0.05), while in Asian subgroup, there was no statistically significant genetic model.ConclusionAGT M235 and EL 584C/T polymorphisms are associated with CAD susceptibility. The genotype TT, TC or allele T of AGT M235T and genotype CC or allele C of EL 584C/T might be the genetic risk factors for the development of CAD.

Abstract Objective: To explore the association between the variant M235T locus of angiotensinogen (AGT) gene, 584C/T locus of Endothelial lipase (EL) gene, and coronary artery disease (CAD) by meta-analysis. Methods: The case–control studies on the association between AGT/EL gene polymorphism and CAD were collected through searching PubMed, Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang databases up to 1 March 2020. Stata 15.0 software was used for analysis. Results: A total of 29 articles met the inclusion criteria. After analyzing, it was found that the M235T polymorphism of AGT gene was associated with the occurrence of CAD. In the allele model (T vs. M), OR = 1.38 (P&lt;v0.05). In other heredity, there was also statistical significance. Subgroup analysis indicated that except the heterozygous genetic model of the Chinese population, other genetic models of the Caucasian and Chinese population were also statistically significant. The 584C/T polymorphism of EL gene was associated with the occurrence of CAD, with OR = 0.83 (P&lt;0.05) in the allele model (T vs. C) and OR = 0.80 (P&lt;0.05) in the dominant gene model. Also, in the allele model of Caucasian subgroup, OR = 0.83 (P&lt;0.05), while in Asian subgroup, there was no statistically significant genetic model. Conclusion: AGT M235T and EL 584C/T polymorphisms are associated with CAD susceptibility. The genotype TT, TC or allele T of AGT M235T and genotype CC or allele C of EL 584C/T might be the genetic risk factors for the development of CAD.

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the leading cause of mortality worldwide, and its susceptibility is closely associated with genetic modifications. The association between inflammation and CAD has been investigated in detail. This meta-analysis was conducted based on the PRISMA guidelines to evaluate the association between the tumor necrosis factor superfamily member 4 (TNFSF4) gene polymorphisms (rs3861950 T &gt; C and rs1234313 A &gt; G) and the risk of CAD.Methods: The selected criteria included 11 eligible articles containing 18 studies (nine studies included 7,395 cases and 5,296 controls for rs3861950 and nine studies with 6,951 cases and 4,959 controls for rs1234313). Correlations between the two polymorphisms and CAD were estimated by pooling the odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) in allelic, dominant, recessive, heterozygous, and homozygous models.Results: The pooled analyses demonstrated that the rs3861950 T &gt; C polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of CAD in the Asian population in the allelic model, dominant model, and homozygous model. Furthermore, subgroup analysis based on disease type showed that TNFSF4 rs3861950 T &gt; C had a robust correlation with increased risk of cerebral infarction (CI) in the allelic model, dominant model, heterozygous model, and homozygous model. However, the rs1234313 A &gt; G polymorphism mostly tended to decrease the risk of CAD in the Asian and Caucasian populations in the allelic and dominant model. This single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) had a close relation to myocardial infarction (MI) susceptibility in the allelic model, dominant model, and heterozygous model.Conclusion: This meta-analysis identified two novel SNPs in TNFSF4 significantly associated with CAD susceptibility.
