Abstract Objective: Regulation of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in micro-RNA (miRNA) on the host cells may be one of the most important factors influencing the occurrence of cervical cancer based on the prevalence of HPV infection and the development of cervical cancer. In order to explore the contribution of miRNA polymorphism to the occurrence and development of cervical cancer, we conducted an analytical study. Methods: We selected the polymorphisms of three widely studied miRNAs (miRNA-146a rs2910164, miRNA-499 rs3746444 and miRNA-196a2 rs11614913). Then we conducted a meta-analysis (for the first time) to investigate their susceptibility to cervical cancer. Case control studies on the correlation between these three miRNAs and cervical cancer susceptibility were investigated by searching on from Pubmed, The Cochrane Library, Embase, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang database and VIP database. Basic characteristics were recorded and meta-analysis of the case studies was performed using STATA 15.1 software. Results: The miRNA-146a rs2910164 mutation significantly reduced the risk of cervical cancer in both recessive model (OR= 0.804, 95%CI= 0.652-0.992, P= 0.042;CC vs. CG+GG) and allelic model (OR= 0.845, 95%CI= 0.721-0.991, P= 0.038;C vs. G). There was no significant correlation between miRNA -499 rs3746444 and the risk of cervical cancer. The miRNA -196a2 rs11614913 mutation was significantly associated with a reduced risk of cervical cancer in homozygous model (OR= 0.641, 95%CI= 0.447-0.919, P= 0.016;TT vs. CC), dominant model (OR= 0.795, 95%CI= 0.636-0.994, P= 0.045;CT+TT vs. CC), recessive model (OR= 0.698, 95%CI= 0.532-0.917, P= 0.01;TT vs. CC+CT), and allelic models (OR= 0.783, 95%CI= 0.643-0.954, P= 0.015;T vs. C). Conclusion: In summary, this meta-analysis shows that the mutant genotypes of miRNA -146a rs2910164 and miRNA -196a2 rs11614913 are associated with a reduced risk of cervical cancer. Therefore, they may be two gene regulatory points for the prevention of cervical cancer.PROSPERO Registration number: CRD42021270079.

This meta-analysis systematically reviews the association between Toll-like receptor 9 polymorphisms and the risk of cervical cancer. Case-control studies focused on the association were collected from the PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, MEDLINE, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang databases from inception to July 2017. We screened the studies and assessed the methodological quality of the included studies and extracted data. A meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 12.0 software. Pooled odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were employed to evaluate the strength of the associations between Toll-like receptor 9 polymorphisms and cervical cancer risk. A total of 9 studies comprising 3331 cervical cancer patients and 4109 healthy controls met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 8 studies contained information about G2848A (rs352140) and 4 studies contained information about −1486T/C (rs187084). Our results revealed that the associations between rs187084 and cervical cancer risk in the dominant model (p=0.002) and heterozygous model (p=0.002) were significant, with 1.30- and 1.32-fold increases in susceptibility, respectively, compared to that in the wild-type model. However, rs352140 was not related to cervical cancer regardless of whether the subgroup analysis was conducted (p>0.05). In conclusion, there is a significant correlation between rs187084 and cervical cancer risk with the minor C allele increasing the risk of occurrence of cervical cancer. However, rs352140 is not associated with the occurrence of cervical cancer.

Abstract Background Published data have reported the relationships between MTHFR A1298C polymorphisms and cervical cancer susceptibility. However, the conclusions of these findings lack consistency.Methods A comprehensive literature search was performed using Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane library, Wan Fang and CNKI databases. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the correlation of MTHFR A1298C polymorphism and cervical cancer risk. Fixed-effects or random effects models was adopted according to heterogeneity test.Results A total of nine studies (1145 cases and 1690 controls) were included in this meta-analysis. Pooled data revealed that MTHFR A1298C polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of cervical cancer in the allele model (P=0.028); the recessive model (P=0.028); and the heterozygous model (P=0.031).Conclusions Our results revealed that MTHFR A1298C polymorphism was associated with risk of cervical cancer.

Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a multifunctional cytokine that has been implicated in the etiology of cancer. Several case–control studies have been conducted to assess the association of IL-6 -174G>C (rs1800795) polymorphism with the risk of cervical cancer, yet with conflicting conclusions. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, we performed this meta-analysis updated to June 2018. A total of seven original publications were identified covering IL-6 -174G>C (rs1800795) polymorphism. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the relationship strengths. Statistically significant relationship was observed between IL-6 -174G>C polymorphism and cervical cancer risk (OR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.40–0.94 for GG vs. CC, and OR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.64–0.93 for G vs. C). Moreover, the significant association was found among Asians (OR = 0.46, 95% CI: 0.29–0.75 for GG vs. CC, and OR = 0.70, 95% CI: 0.57–0.89 for G vs. C); hospital-based subgroup (OR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.38–0.72 for GG vs. CC, and OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.61–0.87 for G vs. C); and Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium ≤0.05 (OR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.37–0.86 for GG vs. GC, and OR = 0.66, 95% CI: 0.47–0.93 for G vs. C). This meta-analysis showed the evidence that the IL-6 -174G>C polymorphism was a low-penetrance susceptibility variant for cervical cancer. Further large-scale case–control studies are needed to confirm these results.

Aims. Published data on the associations of VEGF polymorphisms with diabetic retinopathy (DR) susceptibility are inconclusive. A systematic meta-analysis was undertaken to clarify this topic.Methods. Data were collected from the following electronic databases: PubMed, Embase, OVID, Web of Science, Elsevier Science Direct, Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE), and Cochrane Library with the last report up to January 10, 2014. ORs and 95% CIs were calculated for VEGF–2578C/A (rs699947), –1154G/A (rs1570360), –460T/C (rs833061), −634G>C (rs2010963), and +936C/T (rs3025039) in at least two published studies. Meta-analysis was performed in a fixed/random effect model by using the software STATA 12.0.Results. A total of 11 studies fulfilling the inclusion criteria were included in this meta-analysis. A significant relationship between VEGF+936C/T (rs3025039) polymorphism and DR was found in a recessive model (OR = 3.19, 95% CI = 1.20–8.41, andP(z)=0.01) in Asian and overall populations, while a significant association was also found between –460T/C (rs833061) polymorphism and DR risk under a recessive model (OR = 2.12, 95% CI = 1.12–4.01, andP(z)=0.02).Conclusions. Our meta-analysis demonstrates that +936C/T (rs3025039) is likely to be associated with susceptibility to DR in Asian populations, and the recessive model of –460T/C (rs833061) is associated with elevated DR susceptibility.

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between IL-1A (-889C/T, rs1800587) polymorphism and susceptibility of chronic periodontitis. Methods A systematic literature search was carried out in the databases updated on July 1, 2019, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science. Through STATA 14.0 software, the association between IL-1A (-889C/T) polymorphism and susceptibility of chronic periodontitis was calculated by pooled odds rations (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Harbord test was used for the publication bias. Results The results of overall meta-analysis revealed that IL-1A (-889C/T) polymorphism was associated with the susceptibility of chronic periodontitis among all the genetic models, including allele contrast (T vs. C, OR (95% CI): 1.297 (1.038-1.622), P=0.022), dominant model (TT+CT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 1.337 (1.015-1.761), P=0.039), recessive model (TT vs. CC+CT, OR (95% CI): 1.453 (1.138-1.856), P=0.003), and codominant model (TT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 1.555 (1.187-2.038), P=0.001; CT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 2.559 (1.245-5.260), P=0.011). The results of subgroup analyses indicated that IL-1A (-889C/T) polymorphism was closely related to the susceptibility of chronic periodontitis in African population (T vs. C, OR (95% CI): 1.277 (1.039-1.571), P=0.020; TT+CT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 1.357 (1.061-1.735), P=0.015; TT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 1.599 (1.115-2.292), P=0.011), in European population (TT vs. CC+CT, OR (95% CI): 1.645 (1.112-2.435), P=0.013; TT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 1.639 (1.044-2.574), P=0.032) and in American population (CT vs. CC, OR (95% CI): 6.404 (3.000-13.669), P<0.001). Conclusions IL-1A (-889C/T) polymorphism is associated with the susceptibility of chronic periodontitis in African, European and American populations according to the currently available evidence. However, more large-scale, multi-ethnic case-control studies are required to be conducted in future to confirm the role of IL-1A (-889C/T) gene in the occurrence and development of chronic periodontitis.

Background. This study was to compare the efficacy and safety between neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by radical surgery (NACT+RS) and radiotherapy only (RT) or concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for treatment of patients with stage IB2, IIA, or IIB cervical cancer. Method. The electronic databases of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched to screen relevant studies from their inception to October 2018. Clinical data including overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and adverse events were extracted. Egger’s test was used to evaluate the publication bias, and sensitivity analysis was conducted to estimate the robustness of results. Results. Finally, three randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and two case-control studies consisting of 1,275 patients with stage IB2, IIA, or IIB cervical cancer were included in the current study. Overall, pooled results showed no significant differences in OS ((hazard ratio HR=0.603, 95%CI=0.350−1.038) and DFS (HR=0.678, 95%CI=0.242−1.904) for patients treated with NACT+RS compared with RT only or CCRT, but the subgroup analysis showed that the OS and DFS were significantly longer in the NACT+RS groups than the RT or CCRT group (OS: HR=0.431, 95%CI=0.238−0.781, p=0.006; DFS: HR=0.300, 95%CI=0.187−0.482, p<0.001) for the population with median follow-up time of more than 60 months. For adverse events, the incidence of thrombocytopenia in the NACT+RS group was significantly higher than that in the RT only or CCRT group (relative risk RR=3.240, 95% CI 1.575-6.662), while the incidence of diarrhea was significantly lower than that in the RT only or CCRT group (RR=0.452, 95% CI =0.230-0.890). Conclusion. These findings suggest that the short-term therapeutic effects of the two treatments may be possibly equal for patients with stage IB2-IIB cervical cancer, but the long-term effects for improving OS and DFS may be better using NACT+RS compared with the RT only or CCRT.

Nuclear factor-κB is associated with the pathogenesis of numerous malignancies, and the functional polymorphism −94ins/del ATTG (rs28362491) in the humanNFKB1gene is associated with cancer risk. Previous studies on the association between the −94ins/del ATTG polymorphism and cancer risk reported conflicting results. To clarify this relationship, we performed a meta-analysis of 21 case-control studies involving 6127 cases and 9238 controls. We used pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) to assess the association. We found that theNFKB1promoter −94ins/del ATTG polymorphism was significantly associated with cancer risk in four genetic models (ins/ins versus del/del, OR = 1.47, 95% CI = 1.11–1.93; dominant model, OR = 1.26, 95% CI = 1.03–1.53; recessive model, OR = 1.26, 95% CI = 1.05–1.51; ins allele versus del allele, OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.05–1.35). Stratified analyses revealed a significant association between the polymorphism and ovarian, oral, and prostate cancers. Similar results were determined in an Asian population and not in a Caucasian population. Thus, our results suggested that the polymorphism can contribute to cancer risk. Moreover, the polymorphism can exert race- and cancer-specific effects on cancer risk. Further large-scale and functional studies are necessary to elucidate this possible effect.

The objective of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis to systematically summarize and investigate the association of miRNA-124 rs531564, miRNA-218 rs11134527, miRNA-146a rs2910164, miRNA-196a2 rs11614913, and miRNA-499 rs3746444 polymorphisms with cervical cancer. A systematic review was performed to identify relevant studies using Embase and PubMed databases. A chi-square-based Q -test combined with the inconsistency index ( I 2 ) was used to check the heterogeneity between studies. A total of six case-control studies on rs2910164 and rs11614913, 4 studies on rs3746444 and rs11134527, and three studies on rs531564 were included. No evidence of association was found between miR-146a rs2910164, miR-196a2 rs11614913, miRNA-499 rs3746444, and miR-218 rs11134527 polymorphisms and cervical cancer risk in all the genetic models. The miR-124 rs531564 polymorphism was associated with a statistically increased risk of cervical cancer in a homozygote model (CC vs. GG: OR = 2.87 , 95% CI: 1.40-5.91, P H = 0.887 ), dominant model (GC/CC vs. GG: OR = 1.38 , 95% CI: 1.07-1.80, P H = 0.409 ), and recessive model (CC vs. GC/GG: OR = 2.26 , 95% CI: 1.58-3.23, P H = 0.979 ). However, this finding should be interpreted with caution for limited samples and heterogeneity. Large-scale and well-designed studies are needed to validate our result.
