Abstract In recent years, investigators have been striving to explore the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pneumonia disease (COPD). Hedgehog Interacting Protein (HHIP) has been identified as a candidate susceptibility gene. Our aim is to synthesize and include all evidences to get a more comprehensive result. We searched 6 online databases- PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Wanfang, EMBASE, CNKI. All included studies were published before October 1, 2021. We used Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) to evaluate the bias of each study. Meta-analysis methods were conducted to evaluate the pooled result. A total of 14 comparative studies were included in this meta-analysis, for rs13118928 polymorphism, significant associations were observed in 5 genetic models, (A vs. G, OR=1.18, 95CI%=[1.07-1.30], P=0.0006; AA vs. GG, OR=1.56, 95CI%=[1.22-2.00], P=0.0004; AG vs. GG, OR=1.28, 95CI%=[1.05-1.55], P=0.01; AA+AG vs. GG, OR=1.36, 95CI%=[1.12-1.65], P=0.002; AA vs. AG+GG, OR=1.18, 95CI%=[1.05-1.33], P=0.006). as for rs1828591, there were also significant associations detected in the overall population, (A vs. G, OR=1.12, 95CI%=[1.05-1.19], P=0.0003; AA vs. GG, OR=1.27, 95CI%=[1.04-1.56], P=0.02; AG vs. GG, OR=1.25, 95CI%=[1.03-1.51], P=0.02; AA+AG vs. GG, OR=1.26, 95CI%=[1.04-1.53], P=0.02; AA vs. AG+GG, OR=1.10, 95CI%=[1.01-1.19], P=0.03). This meta-analysis showed that the A allele in both rs13118928 and rs1828591 was turn out to be the risk allele in developing COPD. The result of Codominant genetic model, Dominant genetic model and Recessive genetic model remain the same.

Abstract Background The numbers of confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and COVID-19 related deaths are still increasing, so it is very important to determine the risk factors of COVID-19. Dyslipidemia is a common complication in patients with COVID-19, but the association of dyslipidemia with the severity and mortality of COVID-19 is still unclear. The aim of this study is to analyze the potential association of dyslipidemia with the severity and mortality of COVID-19. Methods We searched the PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases for all relevant studies up to August 24, 2020. All the articles published were retrieved without language restriction. All analysis was performed using Stata 13.1 software and Mantel–Haenszel formula with fixed effects models was used to compare the differences between studies. The Newcastle Ottawa scale was used to assess the quality of the included studies. Results Twenty-eight studies involving 12,995 COVID-19 patients were included in the meta-analysis, which was consisted of 26 cohort studies and 2 case–control studies. Dyslipidemia was associated with the severity of COVID-19 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.11–1.44, P = 0.038, I2 = 39.8%). Further, patients with dyslipidemia had a 2.13-fold increased risk of death compared to patients without dyslipidemia (95% CI 1.84–2.47, P = 0.001, I2 = 66.4%). Conclusions The results proved that dyslipidemia is associated with increased severity and mortality of COVID-19. Therefore, we should monitor blood lipids and administer active treatments in COVID-19 patients with dyslipidemia to reduce the severity and mortality.

Abstract Controversial results concerning the association between a polymorphism rs6822844 in the interleukin (IL) 21 (IL-21) gene and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have existed. A meta-analysis to confirm above relationships is necessary to be performed immediately. We conducted a search in the PubMed database, covering all papers published up to 20 October 2018. Overall, six case–control studies with 3244 cases and 3431 healthy controls were included. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of this association. Publication bias was assessed with both Egger’s and Begg’s tests. After calculation, we found that IL-21 rs6822844 polymorphism could decrease RA risk in overall genetic models (allelic contrast: OR = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.62–0.97, P=0.024; TG versus GG: OR = 0.68, 95% CI = 0.50–0.92, P=0.013, and dominant genetic model: OR = 0.72, 95% CI = 0.55–0.94, P=0.016). Similarly, stratified analysis by race, source of control, significantly decreased association was found in Asians, Caucasians and hospital-based (HB) control source. Finally, in the subgroup analysis of rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA) status, poorly decreased relationship was detected between IL-21 rs6822844 polymorphism and RF negative and ACPA positive RA risk, respectively. No obvious evidence of publication bias was detected in overall analysis. In summary, our study indicated that IL-21 rs6822844 polymorphism was significantly associated with decreased RA susceptibility.

Purpose: This study aimed to review the association between antidepressive agent (AD) use and the incidence risk of breast cancer. Methods: CBM, WOS, Embase, PubMed and Cochrane Library were systematically searched in July 2019. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed through the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. Results: We included 19 studies from six countries or regions with relationships between breast cancer and ADs. Subgroup analysis showed no significant association in nested case–control or case–control studies; however, cohort studies revealed a significant association (odds ratio = 1.11; 95% CI: 1.04–1.17). Conclusions: This meta-analysis indicates that breast cancer was not associated with the use of ADs when considering all types of studies, but an association was observed if we considered cohort studies.

Although many previous studies have reported the relationship between GSTP1 rs1695 gene polymorphism and myelosuppression induced by platinum-based drugs, the conclusions are not consistent. The aim of the study is to evaluate the association between granulocytopenia and thrombocytopenia induced by platinum-based drugs and GSTP1 rs1695 gene polymorphism by meta-analysis. A literature search was performed using the Pubmed, Embase, CNKI, and Wanfang databases, and the odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the correlation. Finally,12 case-control studies comprising 1657 patients were included in our study. GSTP1 rs1695 gene polymorphism showed a significant correlation with granulocytopenia induced by platinum-based drugs (dominant genetic model: OR=1.60, 95% CI=1.19. 2.15, P=0.002; recessive genetic model: OR=3.72, 95% CI=1.73, 8.00, P=0.001; allelic genetic model: OR=1.76, 95% CI=1.34, 2.33, P=0.001). This gene polymorphism is not associated with thrombocytopenia (OR=0.87, 95% CI=0.47, 1.60, P=0.649). False-positive report probability showed that the association between polymorphism and adverse reactions is true. Sensitivity analysis showed that the results were stable. However, there was a certain publication bias in the included studies. In conclusion, the GSTP1 rs1695 gene polymorphism is associated with granulocytopenia induced by platinum-based drugs.

Abstract Some studies have suggested that the Toll-like receptor 9 polymorphism (TLR9 rs352140) is closely related to the risk of bacterial meningitis (BM), but this is subject to controversy. This study set out to estimate whether the TLR9 rs352140 polymorphism confers an increased risk of BM. Relevant literature databases were searched including PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) up to August 2020. Seven case-control studies from four publications were enrolled in the present meta-analysis. Odds ratios (OR) and confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated to estimate associations between BM risk and the target polymorphism. Significant associations identified were allele contrast (A vs. G: OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.59–0.75, P = 0.000), homozygote comparison (AA vs. AG/GG: OR 0.62, 95% CI 0.49–0.78, P = 0.000), heterozygote comparison (A vs. G: OR 0.74, 95% CI 0.61–0.91, P = 0.005), recessive genetic model (AA vs. AG/GG: OR 0.78, 95% CI 0.65–0.93, P = 0.006) and dominant genetic model (AA vs. AG/GG: OR 0.70, 95% CI 0.57–0.85, P = 0.000). The findings indicate that, in contrast to some studies, the TLR9 rs352140 polymorphism is associated with a decreased risk for BM.

Abstract Background Previous studies have shown the effect of MTHFR A1298C gene polymorphism on stroke risk. But the results of published studies remained inconclusive and controversial. So we conducted a meta-analysis to accurately estimate the potential association between MTHFR A1298C gene polymorphism and stroke susceptibility. Methods A systematic literature search on Embase, Pubmed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and WanFang electronic database identified 40 articles including 5725 cases and 8655 controls. Strength of association was evaluated by pooled odds ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval (CI) and p value. Funnel plots and Begger’s regression test were applied for testing the publication bias. Statistical analysis of all data was performed by Stata 12.0. Results The meta-analysis results indicated a significant relationship between MTHFR gene A1298C polymorphisms and stoke risk under the C allelic genetic model (OR = 1.19, 95%CI = 1.07–1.32, p = 0.001), dominant genetic model (OR = 1.19, 95%CI = 1.06–1.33, p = 0.004) and recessive genetic model (OR = 1.43, 95%CI =1.15–1.77, p = 0.001). In subgroup analysis, we discovered obvious correlation in three genetic model of Asian, stroke type, adult by ethnicity, population, stroke type, source of control and case size. Additionally, in studies of control from hospital and case size equal 100, obvious correlation was also found in the three genetic model. Conclusions Our meta-analysis results indicated that there was evidence to support the correlation between MTHFR A1298C polymorphism and stroke susceptibility, especially in adults and ischemic stroke.

Abstract BackgroundPolymorphisms rs231775 and rs3087243 of cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene have been associated with risk of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA). However, the results were inconsistent. The purpose of this study was to quantitatively assess the relationship between polymorphisms rs231775 and rs3087243 of CTLA-4 and LADA in a larger pooled population by performing a meta-analysis. MethodsSystematic search for eligible studies was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase. Case-control studies containing genotype frequencies of polymorphisms rs231775 or rs3087243 of CTLA-4 gene were selected, and pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the associations between polymorphisms of CTLA-4 and LADA in allelic genetic model, dominant genetic model, and recessive genetic model. ResultsA total of eleven studies, in which five studies reported rs231775, two studies reported rs3087342, and four studies reported both rs231775 and rs3087243, were identified. Among them, one study wasn’t included in the following meta-analysis because the distribution of genotypes in the control group didn’t comply with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Significant associations with susceptibility to LADA were detected for rs231775 (785 cases and 3435 controls, allelic genetic model OR 1.53, 95%CI 1.22-1.92; dominant genetic model OR 2.16, 95%CI 1.43-3.28; recessive genetic model OR 1.49, 95%CI 1.13-1.97) and for rs3087243 (820 cases and 4824 controls, allelic genetic model OR 1.26, 95%CI 1.03-1.55; dominant genetic model OR 1.11, 95%CI 0.88-1.40; recessive genetic model OR 1.41, 95%CI 1.07-1.86) in overall population. Further subgroup analyses for ethnicity (Asian, Caucasian, and African) have also indicated the positive association between rs231775 and LADA. As for rs3087243, subgroup analyses detected the association between polymorphism and LADA in Caucasian population under recessive model. ConclusionsPolymorphisms rs231775 and rs3087243 of CTLA-4 gene are potential risk factors for LADA and may serve as novel genetic biomarkers of LADA.

Abstract Background: To date, the fundamental pathophysiology underlying the occurrence and progression of psoriasis are still unanswered questions. Genome-wide association surveys have revealed that TNFAIP3 and TNIP1 were key biomarkers for psoriasis. Here, we intended to conduct a survey on the association between TNFAIP3 and TNIP1 gene polymorphisms and psoriasis risk.Methods: A comprehensive search of four online databases—China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library was undertaken up to August 25, 2019. We chose allele genetic model to deal with the original data. Newcastle–Ottawa scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the risk bias of each study. The RevMan 5.3 software was used to calculate the combined odds ratio and 95% confidence interval.Results: In total, we included 13 case-control studies consist of 13,908 psoriasis patients and 20,051 controls in this work. Our results demonstrated that rs610604 in TNFAIP3 polymorphism was significantly associated with psoriasis risk using random-effect model (G vs. T, OR = 1.19, 95 % CI: 1.09–1.31, P = 0.0002), and a significant association between rs17728338 in TNIP1 polymorphism and psoriasis vulnerability using fixed-effect model (A vs. G, OR = 1.69, 95% CI:1.58–1.80, P < 0.00001).Conclusions: Our findings indicated that rs610604 in TNFAIP3 and rs17728338 in TNIP1 gene polymorphisms were associated with psoriasis susceptibility.

Objective.Several studies have evaluated the association betweenCYP1A1polymorphisms and the susceptibility of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with inconclusive results. We performed the first comprehensive meta-analysis to summarize the association betweenCYP1A1polymorphisms and COPD risk.Method.A systematic literature search was conducted (up to April 2015) in five online databases: PubMed, EMBASE, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), WeiPu, and WanFang databases. The strength of association was calculated by odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI).Results.Seven case-control studies with 1050 cases and 1202 controls were included. Our study suggested a significant association between the MspI polymorphism and COPD risk (CC versus TC + TT: OR = 1.57, CI: 1.09–2.26,P=0.02; CC versus TT: OR = 1.73, CI: 1.18–2.55,P=0.005). For the Ile/Val polymorphism, a significant association with COPD risk was observed (GG versus AG + AA: OR = 2.75, CI: 1.29–5.84,P= 0.009; GG versus AA: OR = 3.23, CI: 1.50–6.93,P=0.003; AG versus AA: OR = 1.39, CI: 1.01–1.90,P=0.04). Subgroup analysis indicated a significant association between the MspI variation and COPD risk among Asians (CC versus TC + TT: OR = 1.70, CI: 1.06–2.71,P=0.03; CC versus TT: OR = 1.84, CI: 1.11–3.06,P=0.02).Conclusion.The MspI and Ile/Val polymorphisms might alter the susceptibility of COPD, and MspI polymorphism might play a role in COPD risk among Asian population.

BackgroundPrevious studies have revealed the critical role of methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphisms in response to high-dose methotrexate (MTX)-induced toxicity in osteosarcoma patients. However, the conclusions remain controversial. In this setting, we performed a meta-analysis to determine their association more precisely.MethodEligible studies were searched and screened in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Clinical-Trials.gov, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) following specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The required information was retrieved and collected for subsequent meta-analysis. Association between MTHFR polymorphism and MTX toxicity was evaluated by odds ratios (ORs).ResultsSeven studies containing 585 patients were enrolled and analyzed in this meta-analysis. Overall, the MTX related grade 3-4 liver toxicity was significantly associated with MTHFR rs1801133 allele (T vs. C: OR=1.61, 95%CI=1.07-2.42, P=0.024), homozygote (TT vs. CC: OR=2.11, 95%CI=1.06-4.21, P=0.011), and dominant genetic model (TT/TC vs. CC: OR=3.15, 95%CI=1.30-7.60, P=0.035) in Asian population. Meanwhile, close associations between MTX mediated grade 3-4 mucositis and MTHFR rs1801133 polymorphism were identified in allele contrast (T vs. C: OR=2.28, 95%CI=1.49-3.50, P&lt;0.001), homozygote comparison (TT vs. CC: OR=4.07, 95%CI=1.76-9.38, P=0.001), heterozygote comparison (TC vs. CC: OR=2.55, 95%CI=1.20-5.42, P=0.015), recessive genetic model (TT vs. TC/CC: OR=2.09, 95%CI=1.19-3.67, P=0.010), and dominant genetic model (TT/TC vs. CC: OR=2.97, 95%CI=1.48-5.96, P=0.002). Additionally, kidney toxicity was corelated with the heterozygote comparison (TC vs. CC: OR=2.63, 95%CI=1.31-5.29, P=0.007) of rs1801133 polymorphism.ConclusionThe MTHFR rs1801133 polymorphism was significantly associated with severer liver toxicity induced by high-dose MTX treatment in the Asian population. In the meantime, patients with MTHFR rs1801133 polymorphism were predisposed to MTX- related mucositis.
