Thr105Ile (rs11558538) polymorphism in the histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) gene and risk for Parkinson disease: A PRISMA-compliant systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Several neuropathological, biochemical, and pharmacological data suggested a possible role of histamine in the etiopathogenesis of Parkinson disease (PD). The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs11558538 in the histamine N-methyltransferase (HNMT) gene has been associated with the risk of developing PD by several studies but not by some others. We carried out a systematic review that included all the studies published on PD risk related to the rs11558538 SNP, and we conducted a meta-analysis following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.We used several databases to perform the systematic review, the software Meta-DiSc 1.1.1 to perform the meta-analysis of the eligible studies, and the Q-statistic to test heterogeneity between studies.The meta-analysis included 4 eligible case-control association studies for the HNMT rs11558538 SNP and the risk for PD (2108 patients, 2158 controls). The frequency of the minor allele positivity showed a statistically significant association with a decreased risk for PD, both in the total series and in Caucasians. Although homozygosity for the minor allele did not reach statistical significance, the test for trend indicates the occurrence of a gene-dose effect. Global diagnostic odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for rs11558538T were 0.61 (0.46-0.81) for the total group, and 0.63 (0.45-0.88) for Caucasian patients.The present meta-analysis confirms published evidence suggesting that the HNMT rs11558538 minor allele is related to a reduced risk of developing PD.

Project description:Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second-most-common chronic and progressive neurodegenerative disease. The long-term use of levodopa leads to a loss of efficacy and to complications. Therefore, many patients with PD have turned to complementary therapies to help relieve their symptoms. Acupuncture is most commonly used as a complementary therapy in patients with PD. This paper presents a systematic review and meta-analysis of the effects of acupuncture for patients with PD. This study was performed to summarize and evaluate evidence regarding the effectiveness of acupuncture in the relief of PD symptoms.Seven databases, namely, MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure [CNKI], and three Korean medical databases, were searched from their inception through August 2015 without language restrictions. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included if they contained reports of acupuncture compared with no treatment and conventional treatment alone or acupuncture plus conventional treatment compared with conventional treatment alone for PD symptoms. Assessments were performed with the unified PD rating scales (UPDRS) I, II, III, and IV and the total score, the Webster scale, and effectiveness rating. Methodological quality was assessed using the Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale and the Cochrane risk of bias (ROB).In all, 982 potentially relevant articles were identified; 25 RCTs met our inclusion criterion, 19 of 25 RCTs were high-quality studies (i.e., a score of 6 or higher). The included RCTs showed favorable results for acupuncture plus conventional treatment compared with conventional treatment alone in the UPDRS II, III, and IV and the total score. Acupuncture was effective in relieving PD symptoms compared with no treatment and conventional treatment alone, and acupuncture plus conventional treatment had a more significant effect than conventional treatment alone.We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the use of acupuncture for relief of PD symptoms and found that acupuncture has significant positive effects. Acupuncture can be considered as a combination treatment with conventional treatment for patients with PD. Further studies on this topic should be carried out according to rigorous methodological designs in both the East and the West.

Project description:BackgroundCyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an inducible enzyme that mediates the synthesis of prostaglandin, which plays an important role in the inflammation response. The overexpression of COX-2 in lung cancer has been found in several studies, suggesting that COX-2 contributes to carcinogenesis. There are many previous case-control studies focused on the association between COX-2 polymorphism and lung cancer risk, however, the conclusion remained controversial.ObjectivesWe performed this meta-analysis to evaluate the association between COX-2 rs5275 and rs689466 polymorphism and susceptibility to lung cancer.MethodsA systematic literature research was conducted on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, OVID, Web of Science, and Google Scholar up to November 30, 2017. The quality of studies was assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa scale. We combined odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in 5 different genetic models for evaluation under a fixed-effect model or random-effect model. Subgroup analysis was performed according to source of control, ethnicity, pathological types, and smoking status. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also conducted.ResultsEventually, 14 eligible studies were included in our meta-analysis. We found rs5275 gene polymorphism decreased the risk of lung cancer under heterozygote model (OR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.84-0.98, P = .02). COX-2 rs689466 gene polymorphism was also related to a significantly reduced risk under allele (OR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.82-0.95, P = .001), homozygote (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.68-0.95, P = .01), heterozygote (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.72-0.91, P < .001), and dominant model (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.72-0.91, P < .001), except for recessive model. Subgroup analysis suggested a similar association in Asians, but not in Caucasians. Polymorphism of rs5275 was strongly associated with a reduced risk of lung adenocarcinoma according to stratified analysis by pathological types. Egger test identified no significant publication bias.ConclusionsOur meta-analysis demonstrated that COX-2 rs5275 and rs689466 polymorphism significantly decrease the risk of lung cancer in Asians but not in Caucasians, indicating COX-2 could serve as a potential diagnostic marker for lung cancer.
