ObjectivesThe present study aimed to detect a possible association between PTPN22 gene polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a Chinese Han population.Methods7 PTPN22 SNPs were genotyped in 358 patients with RA and 713 patients with SLE, as well as 564 RA controls and 672 SLE controls by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP). Association analyses were conducted on the whole data set. Significant relationships were also examined between clinical features and SNPs for both RA and SLE.ResultsRs2476601 was lack of polymorphism with a ⩽0.1% frequency in both SLE and RA patients and healthy controls in our study. The two SNPs rs1217414 and rs3811021 of PTPN22 shown strong association with both SLE (rs1217414T: padj = 6.07e−004, OR = 0.57; rs3811021C: padj = 4.68e−005, OR = 0.65) and RA (rs1217414T: padj = 2.01e−008, OR = 0.26; rs3811021C: padj = 0.028, OR = 0.70). And the rs3765598 revealed a strong risk factor for SLE (p = 9.38e−009, padj = 6.57e−008, OR = 1.93), but not for RA (p = 0.48, OR = 1.12). Moreover, protective haplotype ACTTC in RA (p = 7.73e−016, padj = 5.51−015, OR[95%CI] = 0.02[0.002–0.10]) and SLE (p = 8.29e−018, padj = 5.80e−017, OR[95%CI] = 0.11[0.06–0.21]) were observed. In addition, the distribution of risk haplotypes ACGTC and GCTTT in RA (ACGTC: p = 0.0006, padj = 0.004, OR[95%CI] = 1.85[1.29–2.63]; GCTTT: p = 2.62e−005, padj = 1.85e−004, OR[95%CI] = 2.40[1.57–3.65]) and SLE (ACGTC: p = 0.0006, padj = 0.004, OR[95%CI] = 1.85[1.29–2.63]; ACGTC: p = 7.74e−011, padj = 6.81e−010, OR[95%CI] = 2.21[1.12–3.34]; GCTTT: p = 2.40[1.57–3.65], padj = 2.26e−006, OR[95%CI] = 2.64[1.79–3.87]) were significant different from that in controls. Furthermore, significant association was observed between the PTPN22 rs3765598 and antinuclear antibodies 1 (ANA1) in SLE.ConclusionsOur data provide strong evidence that the rs1217414 and rs3811021 in PTPN22 gene might be common protective factors contributed to SLE and RA susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. While, the rs3765598 might increase the genetic susceptibility of SLE, but not RA. 相似文献

Increasing number of studies focused on the association of IL-17A rs2275913 and IL-17F rs763780 polymorphisms with gastric cancer (GC) risk. However, the results were inconsistent. To elucidate the exact association, we performed the present meta-analysis. Databases including PubMed, Web of knowledge and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were systematically searched for potentially eligible literatures. Odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the strength of association. Eight studies for IL-17A rs2275913 (3345 cases and 4427 controls) and five studies for IL-17F rs763780 (1784 cases and 2592 controls) were finally included. The results indicated that individuals with AA genotype of IL-17A rs2275913 polymorphism were associated with increased GC risk compared with wild-type GG (OR = 1.61, 95% CI = 1.17–2.23, P = 0.004); A allele was significantly associated with increased GC risk compared with G allele (OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.06–1.41, P = 0.007). IL-17F rs763780 polymorphism was also significantly associated with increased GC risk (CC vs. CT: OR = 1.40, 95% CI = 1.04–1.88, P = 0.025; CT vs. TT: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.16–1.58, P < 0.001; C allele vs. T allele: OR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.15–1.47, P < 0.001). In summary, IL-17A rs2275913 A/G polymorphism and IL-17F rs763780 C/T polymorphism might be associated with increased GC risk in Asians. Further large-scale studies are still required to confirm the results of this meta-analysis. 相似文献

ObjectiveA meta-analysis was performed to determine the association between P2X7-1513A/C polymorphism and pulmonary tuberculosis susceptibility.MethodsBased on comprehensive searches of the MEDLINE, EMBASE and ISI Web of knowledge, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang Database, we identified eligible studies about the association between P2X7-1513A/C polymorphism and pulmonary tuberculosis susceptibility.ResultsA total of 1916 cases and 2194 controls in 10 studies were pooled together for evaluation of the overall association between P2X7-1513A/C polymorphism and susceptibility of pulmonary tuberculosis. Allele model (A vs. C: p = 0.15; OR = 0.86, 95% CI = 0.69–1.06), homozygous model (AA vs. CC: p = 0.22; OR = 0.78, 95% CI = 0.53–1.16), and heterozygous model (AC vs. CC: p = 0.23; OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.56–1.15) did not show decreased risk of developing pulmonary tuberculosis. Similarly, dominant model (AA + AC vs. CC: p = 0.19; OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.56–1.12) and recessive model (AA vs. AC + CC: p = 0.21; OR = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.66–1.10) failed to show decreased risk of developing pulmonary tuberculosis. In Indians, allele model (A vs. C: p = 0.0006; OR = 0.69, 95% CI = 0.55–0.85), and recessive model (AA vs. AC + CC: p = 0.0003; OR = 0.62, 95% CI = 0.48–0.80) indicated significant association between P2X7-1513A/C polymorphism and susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis.ConclusionsOur pooled data suggest a association between P2X7-1513A/C polymorphism and the prevalence of pulmonary tuberculosis among Indian populations. 相似文献

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to determine whether the functional interleukin-18 (IL-18) promoter -607 C/A (rs1946518) and -137 G/C (rs187238) polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to type 1 diabetes (TID).MethodsA meta-analysis was conducted to assess the associations between the IL-18 -607 C/A and -137 G/C polymorphisms and T1D in overall and by ethnic group.ResultsA total of 6075 cases and 5744 controls from ten studies were considered in this meta-analysis. In all study subjects, the meta-analysis showed no association between T1D and the IL-18 -607 C allele (OR = 1.083, 95% CI = 0.930–1.260, p = 0.307). However, stratification by ethnicity indicated an association between the IL-18 -607 C allele and T1D in Asians (OR = 1.506, 95% CI = 1.172–1.936, p = 0.001), but not in Europeans (OR = 0.988, 95% CI = 0.808–1.209, p = 0.907). Analysis using recessive and dominant models and homozygote contrast showed the same -607 C allele pattern in Asians and Europeans. Meta-analysis of the IL-18 -137 G/C polymorphism showed no association between T1D and the IL-18 -137 G allele in all study subjects (OR = 1.066, 95% CI = 0.926–1.2289, p = 0.375). Stratification by ethnicity indicated no association between the IL-18 -137 G allele and T1D in Europeans and Asians (OR = 1.021, 95% CI = 0.961–1.085, p = 0.504; OR = 0.851, 95% CI = 0.5821–1.245, p = 0.406).ConclusionsOur meta-analysis demonstrates that the IL-18 -607 C/A polymorphism may be associated with susceptibility to T1D in Asians, but not in Europeans. 相似文献

Hypertension is a major public health problem affecting about 30% of the adult population and is associated with an increased risk of developing metabolic and cardiovascular disease. Recent reports have shown that the T-cadherin receptor characteristically expressed on endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells is involved in hypertension. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the role of cadherin-13 (CDH13) gene polymorphisms as susceptibility markers for hypertension in Mexican population. Six CDH13 polymorphisms (rs11646213, rs11646411, rs6563943, rs3096277, rs3784990 and rs254340) were genotyped by 5′ exonuclease TaqMan assays in a group of 644 hypertensive and 765 non-hypertensive individuals. Under co-dominant, recessive, and additive models, the CDH13 T > A (rs11646213) polymorphism was associated with decreased risk of developing hypertension when compared to non-hypertensive individuals (OR = 0.61, 95% CI: 0.42–0.89, Pco-dom = 0.019; OR = 0.63, 95% CI: 0.46–0.87, Pres = 0.005; OR = 0.80, 95% CI: 0.66–0.96, Padd = 0.016, respectively). All models were adjusted by gender, age, body index mass, type II diabetes mellitus, alcohol consumption, dyslipidemia and smoking habit. Linkage disequilibrium analysis showed one haplotype (TCACGG) with decreased frequency in hypertensive when compared to non-hypertensive individuals (OR = 0.52, 95% CI: 0.33–0.82, P = 0.0053). In summary, our data suggests that the CDH13 T > A (rs11646213) polymorphism is associated with decreased risk of developing hypertension in the Mexican population. In addition, it was possible to distinguish one haplotype associated with decreased risk and two for increased risk of develop hypertension. 相似文献

BackgroundMicroRNAs (miRNAs), small RNA molecules, play a role in the development and differentiation of immune cells in both innate and adaptive immune responses. Our study was aimed to investigate the association between three miRNA polymorphism and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) or systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by using meta-analysis approach.MethodsA PubMed database search was conducted during August 2013 to identify case–control studies of miRNAs and RA or SLE risk. Two authors independently extracted information on the study design, the characteristics of the study participants, exposure and outcome assessments. The fix-effects and random-effects models were used for the risk estimates by Stata 11.0 software.ResultsOur meta-analysis of six case–control studies involving a total of 998 RA cases and 1493 controls identified no significant association between mir-146a rs2910164 and RA, with an overall OR of 0.843 (95% CI = 0.642–1.105; CC vs. GG). No association was observed in three studies with a total of 1532 cases and 2168 controls between miR-146a rs2910164 and SLE risk (OR = 0.911, 95% CI = 0.710–1.171; CC vs. GG). Three studies with a total of 529 cases and 595 controls evaluated the mir-499 rs3746444 polymorphism and its association with RA. There was a decreased overall risk of RA under the allelic and genotypic models [OR = 0.616, 95% CI = 0.384–0.981, (T vs. C allele) and OR = 0.386, 95% CI = 0.226–0.659, (TT vs. CC)]. Two studies with 4826 cases and 4181 controls evaluated miR-146a rs57095329 and its association with SLE. There was a significant association between miR-146a rs57095329 and SLE (OR = 1.263, 95% CI = 1.136–1.405, G vs. A allele).ConclusionsThe present meta-analysis suggests important roles for the mir-499 rs3746444 polymorphism in RA, especially in the Caucasian population and for miR-146a rs57095329 polymorphism in SLE. Further studies with large sample size are needed to confirm these associations. 相似文献

ObjectivesThe results of studies on association between KIR (killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors) polymorphisms and susceptibility to RA (rheumatoid arthritis) are inconsistent. To comprehensively evaluate the effect of KIR polymorphisms on the risk of RA, a meta-analysis was carried out.MethodsThe Web of Science, PubMed, the Chinese Biomedical Database (CBM) and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were systematically searched to select studies on the association between KIR polymorphisms and RA. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was obtained.ResultsNine qualified case–control studies were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed there were two positive associations of 2DL1, 2DS1 (OR2DL1 = 2.20, 95%CI = 1.20–4.01, Praw = 0.01, PFDR = 0.03; OR2DS1 = 1.84, 95%CI = 1.19–2.85, Praw = 0.006, PFDR = 0.018) and one negative association of 2DL3 (OR2DL3 = 0.42, 95%CI = 0.22–0.79, Praw = 0.006, PFDR = 0.018) with susceptibility to RA in East Asians, but not in Caucasians.ConclusionThe current meta-analysis provides evidence that 2DL3 might be a potential protective factor and 2DL1, 2DS1 might be risk factors for RA in East Asians but not in Caucasians. 相似文献

We previously reported, significantly higher levels of Chymase and Tryptase in early stage plasma of DSS patients prior to the occurrence of shock suggesting a possible role of mast cells in dengue pathogenesis. To further investigate, we analyzed CMA1 promoter SNP (rs1800875) and TPSAB1 gene alleles, which encode the Human Chymase and α- and β- tryptase 1 enzymes respectively, for susceptibility to Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) and Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS) in patients from hospitals in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City and Vinh Long) and the Philippines. While the CMA1 promoter SNP (rs1800875) was not associated with DHF/DSS, the homozygous form of α-tryptase allele was associated with DSS patients in Vinh Long and the Philippines (OR = 3.52, p < 0.0001; OR = 3.37, p < 0.0001, respectively) and with DHF in Ho Chi Minh City (OR = 2.54, p = 0.0084). Also, a statistically significant association was observed when DHF and DSS were combined in Vinh Long (OR = 1.5, p = 0.034) and the Philippines (OR = 2.36, p = 0.0004); in Ho Chi Minh City when DHF and DSS were combine an association was observed, but it was not statistically significant (OR = 1.5, p = 0.0505). Therefore, the α-tryptase might have a possible effect on the susceptibility to severe form of Dengue infection. 相似文献

The roles of chemokine receptor V (CCR5) and its polymorphism, rs333 in multiple sclerosis (MS) are controversial. We investigated the receptor and its deletion in a large MS (428) and a numerous control (831) population in Csongrád County (Hungary) and North-Bácska (Serbia). Taqman probes firstly were used for the allele discrimination. There was no significant difference in genotype (OR = 1.092, 95% CI = 0.807–1.478, p = 0.568 for wt/wt (wt = wild type allele) vs wt/Δ32, Δ32/Δ32 (Δ32 = Δ32 base pair deletion allele)) or allele frequency (OR = 0.914, 95% CI = 0.692–1.207, p = 0.525). Neither the deletion nor the wt allele affected the Expanded Disability Status Scale score or the age at onset. Our results indicate no association between the CCR5 Δ32 allele and MS. 相似文献

BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic systemic autoimmune disease. As a member of FCRLs clusters, Fc receptor-like 3 (FCRL3) has been recognized as a neoteric autoimmune activation factor for RA. The aim of our study is to evaluate the correlation between four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on FCRL3 and RA risk in a Chinese Han population.Material and methodsThe hospital-based case-control study included 630 RA patients together with 696 healthy individuals as the control group and all subjects are Chinese ancestry. Four tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (tag-SNPs) on FCRL3 were selected and genotyped by TaqMan assay. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were employed to evaluate the correlations between FCRL3 polymorphisms and RA. A systematic meta-analysis was also carried out based on the present study and previously published studies to further examine the association between FCRL3 variations and RA risk.ResultsSignificant association was found between −169T/C SNP and RA risk (CC vs. TT, OR = 1.62, 95% CI = 1.18–2.22; TC/CC vs. TT, OR = 1.47, 95% CI = 1.18–1.84; C vs. T, OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.12–1.54). Apart from that, mutations of −169T/C was significantly correlated with rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (ACPA) positive status. The meta-analysis also suggested that −169T/C mutation might have positive correlation with risk of RA in the overall population, particularly for Asian. Stratified analysis based on clinical characteristics of RF and ACPA also provided evidence that −169T/C polymorphisms could alter phenotypes of RA.ConclusionThe FCRL3 −169T/C variant was significantly linked with an increased RA risk in the Chinese Han population. Moreover, this meta-analysis also provides notion that −169T/C variant could act as a susceptible factor for RA. However, further investigations about the functional impacts of this polymorphism are essential to confirm the above conclusions. 相似文献

ObjectiveBoth Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) have a complex etiology involving multiple genetic and environmental factors. Multiple UC and CD susceptibility genes have been identified through genome-wide association studies and subsequent meta-analyses. The aim of this meta-analysis was to clarify the impact of MYO9B gene polymorphisms on CD and UC risk.MethodsThe PubMed, Elsevier Science Direct and Embase databases were searched to identify eligible studies that were published before October 2014. Data were extracted and pooled crude odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated.ResultsA total of 11 studies, containing 3297 CD cases, 3903 UC cases and 8174 controls were included in this meta-analysis. Bonferroni correction results showed that rs1545620 A/C polymorphism of MYO9B gene was associated with both CD and UC susceptibility in Caucasians (OR = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.82 ∼ 0.95, P = 0.001; OR = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.76 ∼ 0.89, P < 0.001), but not in Chinese. rs1457092 G/T and rs2305764 C/T polymorphisms are associated with UC susceptibility (OR = 0.85, 95% CI = 0.79 ∼ 0.91, P < 0.001; OR = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.83 ∼ 0.93, P < 0.001), but not with CD susceptibility in Caucasians.ConclusionsThis meta-analysis suggested that rs1545620 is both CD and UC susceptible locus in Caucasians; rs1457092 and rs2305764 are UC susceptible loci, but are not CD susceptible loci in Caucasians. Further studies with more sample size are needed for a definitive conclusion. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to explore whether interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene (−174 G/C and −572 C/G) polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in Chinese population. All the statistical tests were performed using Stata version 11.0. Twelve articles involving 16 studies were included in this meta-analysis, covering a total of 2309 CAD cases and 2273 controls. For IL-6 gene −572 C/G polymorphism, the results showed evidence for significant association between IL-6 gene −572 C/G polymorphism and CAD risk (for G allele vs. C allele: OR = 1.48, 95% CI = 1.26–1.74, p < 0.001; for G/G vs. C/C: OR = 2.60, 95% CI = 1.54–4.39, p < 0.001; for G/G vs. G/C + C/C: OR = 2.15, 95% CI = 1.35–3.42, p = 0.001; for G/G + G/C vs. C/C: OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.29–1.85, p < 0.001). However, for IL-6 gene −174 G/C polymorphism, no significant association was found between this variation and CAD risk. In summary, our meta-analysis showed evidence that IL-6 gene −572 C/G polymorphism may be a risk factor for CAD susceptibility. For IL-6 gene −174 G/C polymorphism, no significant association was found between this variation and CAD risk. 相似文献

Background and aimsMany studies have been published on the association between IFNL4 rs368234815 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and sustained virological response (SVR) in chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients undergoing treatment with PEGylated interferon (PEG-IFN) plus ribavirin (RBV). Because of the variable and sometimes inconsistent results, we performed a meta-analysis to estimate the association between these factors.MethodsWe conducted a search of the literature published prior to July 1, 2014. The pooled results were analyzed as the odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using random-effect model.ResultsThe pooled results revealed that the rs368234815 TT/TT genotype was significantly correlated with SVR in HCV-1/4-infected Caucasian patients (OR = 4.65, 95% CI = 3.36–6.42, P < 0.00001) but not in HCV-2/3-infected Caucasian patients (OR = 1.44, 95% CI: 0.89–2.33, P = 0.13). Conversely, the rs368234815 ΔG/ΔG genotype was significantly linked to treatment failure in Caucasian patients (OR = 0.49, 95% CI: 0.38–0.64, P < 0.00001), regardless of the HCV genotype.ConclusionThe results of the meta-analysis suggest that IFNL4 rs368234815 polymorphism may be a predictor of SVR in Caucasian HCV-1/4-infected patients. 相似文献

BackgroundMicro-RNAs are implicated in various physiological and pathologic processes. In this study, we tested whether Micro-RNA gene variants of host-genome affect clinical manifestation of symptomatic HCMV infection.MethodologyHCMV infection was detected by fluorescent PCR and immuno-histochemistry. The detection of genetic variants of four studied Micro-RNA tag-SNPs was done through PCR-RFLP assay and validated with DNA sequencing.ResultsWe observed an increased risk ranged from 3-folds to 5-folds among symptomatic HCMV cases for mutant genotype of rs2910164 (crude OR = 3.11, p = 0.009 and adjusted OR = 3.25, p = 0.007), rs11614913 (crude OR = 3.20, p = 0.006 and adjusted OR = 3.48, p = 0.004) and rs3746444 (crude OR = 4.91, p = 0.002 and adjusted OR = 5.28, p = 0.002) tag-SNPs. Interestingly, all the tag-SNPs that were significant after multiple comparisons at a FDR of 5% in symptomatic HCMV cases remained significant even after bootstrap analysis, providing internal validation to these results. Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) analysis revealed 5-folds increased risk for symptomatic HCMV cases under the four-factor model (rs2910164, rs2292832, rs11614913 and rs3746444).ConclusionsThese results suggest that Micro-RNA gene variants of host-genome may affect clinical manifestation of symptomatic HCMV infection. 相似文献

Background
Many studies with inconsistent results have assessed the association of Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene polymorphisms with prevalence of obesity and overweight. This review aims to provide a summary of the literature evaluating the relation between BDNF genotype and body mass index (BMI).Methods
A systematic search through PubMed, Scopus, Science direct, Ovid and Cochrane was performed. We included observational studies with cross-sectional and case-control design, which investigated relationship between all kinds of BDNF polymorphisms with BMI, as a representative index of obesity and overweight. Newcastle–Ottawa Scale was used to assess the quality of included articles.Results
Thirty five studies were included in quantitative synthesis. Analyses were performed separately using OR, β coefficient and mean. Significant association were documented between rs925946 and BMI (OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.08–1.17, P heterogeneity = 0.317), rs10501087 and BMI (OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.04–1.24, P heterogeneity = 0.861), rs6265 and BMI (OR = 1.13, 95% CI = 1.07–1.19, P heterogeneity = 0.406), rs988712 and BMI (OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 1.18–1.40, P heterogeneity = 0.602). According to pooled β coefficient analysis, significant result was only observed in the rs925946 polymorphism subgroup. Pooled mean analysis showed that overall effects for the association between BDNF polymorphisms and BMI were not statistically significant.Conclusion
This meta-analysis suggests that some polymorphisms in BDNF gene including rs925946, rs10501087, rs6265 and rs988712 can be considered as genetic determinants of obesity. 相似文献16.

There is a biologically plausible association between low vitamin D, specifically serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] level, and frailty. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to describe the association between low 25(OH)D level and frailty. We searched literature in OVID (Medline), EMBASE, Web of Knowledge and Cochrane CENTRAL Library Issue in May 2016, for cohort studies evaluating association of low 25(OH)D level with the risk of frailty. Studies were reviewed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses(PRISMA) guidelines. A total of seven studies(17,815 participants)were eligible in our study. The prevalence of frailty ranged from 3.9% to 31.9%. The pooled OR of frailty for the lowest versus the highest level of vitamin D was 1.27 (95% CI = 1.17–1.38, I2 = 59%), suggesting that low level of vitamin D was significantly associated with the risk of frailty. In addition, results of subgroups analysis indicated that low level of vitamin D was significantly associated with the risk of frailty in female (pooled OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.15–1.40). Similar result was also found when frailty was defined by the Fried criteria or the modified Fried criteria (pooled OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.14–1.37), and FRAIL scale (pooled OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.07–2.25). Compared to the highest level of 25(OH)D, the association between frailty and the lowest level of 25(OH)D was significant in our study. 相似文献

We performed two case–control studies on brain tumours diagnosed during 1 January 1997 to 30 June 2000 and 1 July 2000 to 31 December 2003, respectively. Living cases and controls aged 20–80 years were included. An additional study was performed on deceased cases with a malignant brain tumour using deceased controls. Pooled results for glioma yielded for ipsilateral use of mobile phone odds ratio (OR) = 2.9, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.8–4.7 in the >10 years latency group. The corresponding result for cordless phone was OR = 3.8, 95% CI = 1.8–8.1. OR increased statistically significant for cumulative use of wireless phones per 100 h and per year of latency. For high-grade glioma ipsilateral use of mobile phone gave OR = 3.9, 95% CI = 2.3–6.6 and cordless phone OR = 5.5, 95% CI = 2.3–13 in the >10 years latency group. Heredity for brain tumour gave OR = 3.4, 95% CI = 2.1–5.5 for glioma. There was no interaction with use of wireless phones. X-ray investigation of the head gave overall OR = 1.3, 95% CI = 1.1–1.7 for glioma without interaction with use of wireless phones or heredity. In conclusion use of mobile and cordless phone increased the risk for glioma with highest OR for ipsilateral use, latency >10 years and third tertile of cumulative use in hours. In total, the risk was highest in the age group <20 years for first use of a wireless phone. 相似文献

Interleukin (IL)-20 belongs to the IL-10 family and is a potent immunomodulatory cytokine with implications for pathogenesis in the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The interleukin 20 gene is located within a 200 kb region of q31-32 locus of chromosome 1. No previous studies have reported this novel association between ulcerative colitis (UC) and IL-20 polymorphisms. In the present work, we evaluated the role of IL-20 gene polymorphisms as susceptibility markers for UC. Three polymorphisms of IL-20 gene (rs2981573, rs2232360, rs1518108) were genotyped by 5′ exonuclease TaqMan genotyping assays on an ABI Prism 7900 HT Fast Real-Time PCR system in a group of 198 Mexican Mestizo patients with UC and 698 ethnically matched healthy unrelated individuals with no family history of UC. We found significant decreased frequencies of two IL-20 genotypes: GG (rs2981573) [10.6% vs. 17.6%, p = 0.017, OR = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.33–0.93] and GG (rs2232360) [10.6% vs. 17.6%, p = 0.017, OR = 0.55, 95% CI: 0.33–0.93] in UC patients as compared to healthy controls. No significant differences of gene frequencies were found between UC patients and healthy controls in the rs1518108 polymorphism. In the subgroup analysis, no differences were found between the IL-20 genotypes and the clinical characteristics of UC. The results suggest that the GG genotypes of the IL-20 polymorphisms (rs2981573 and rs2232360) might have an important role in the development of UC in the Mexican population. 相似文献

BackgroundAnaemia is a common side-effect of ribavirin (RBV) use that overwhelms management of hepatitis C when protease inhibitors are added.AimTo assess the pharmacogenomic impact of candidate genes SLC28A2, SLC28A3 and ITPA on anaemia in patients receiving triple therapy.MethodsPatients (n = 161) with chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 treated with telaprevir (n = 95) or boceprevir (n = 66) were included. Using RT-PCR we genotyped ITPA (rs1127354, rs7270101) and SLC28A3 (rs56350726, rs10868138) and SLC28A2 (rs11854484). Clinically significant anaemia (CSA) was diagnosed when at least one of the following criteria was observed: (a) haemoglobin <8.5 g/dL during treatment; (b) blood transfusion required; (c) erythropoietin administered.ResultsCSA occurred in 44% (69/157) of patients and was associated with SLC28A2 rs11854484 [CC/CT genotypes: 33% (26/78) vs. TT genotype: 56% (36/64); p = 0.006]. Further, the needed for blood transfusion was related to genotype [CC: 0% (0/18) vs. CT: 13% (8/61) vs. TT: 27% (17/64); p = 0.016]. Similarly, ITPA rs1127354 genotypes [AA/AC: 19% (3/16) vs. CC: 45% (61/135; p = 0.060] were linked to CSA. In multivariate analysis, SLC28A2 rs11854484 TT genotype (OR:2.33;95%CI:1.10–4.95; p = 0.027), female sex (OR:2.54;95% CI:1.13–5.71;p = 0.024) and Hb drop at week 4) OR: 1.36; 95CI%: 1.11–1.67; p = 0.003) were independently associated with CSA. Similarly, ITPA rs1127354 genotypes [AA/AC: 16% (3/19) vs. CC: 63% (85/134); p = 0.0001] and ITPA rs6051702 genotypes [CC/CA: 46% (26/57) vs. CC: 65% (60/93); p = 0.023] were related to Hb drop of >3g/dL at week 4.ConclusionsIn patients receiving first generation protease inhibitors, genotype SLC28A2 rs11854484 predicts CSA, and helps to identify a subgroup of patients with better tolerance of triple therapy. 相似文献

The potential causal association between human papillomavirus (HPV) and lung cancer (LC) remains controversial. We performed this meta-analysis to evaluate whether HPV infection in lung tissue is associated with LC compared with non-cancer controls. We also quantified this association in different LC subtypes. MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science were searched through March 2014, using the search terms “lung cancer”, “human papillomavirus”, “HPV” and their combinations. Association was tested using odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Heterogeneity was assessed using Q and I2 statistic. Finally, nine studies, for a total of 1094 LCs and 484 non-cancer controls, were identified as eligible publications. The pooled results showed that HPV infection was associated with LC (OR = 5.67, 95% CI: 3.09–10.40, P < 0.001). Similar results were also observed in HPV16 and/or HPV18 (HPV16/18) infection analyses (OR = 6.02, 95% CI: 3.22–11.28, P < 0.001). HPV16/18 was significantly associated with lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (OR = 9.78, 95% CI: 6.28–15.22, P < 0.001), while the pooled OR was 3.69 in lung adenocarcinoma (95% CI: 0.99–13.71, P = 0.052). Our results suggest that lung tissue with HPV infection has a strong association with LC, and especially, HPV16/18 infection significantly increases SCC risk, which indicates a potential pathogenesis link between HPV and LC. 相似文献
