Project description:OBJECTIVES:A number of studies conducted to assess the association between Clara cell 10-kDa protein (CC10) +38A/G polymorphism and susceptibility to asthma have yielded inconsistent and inconclusive results. In the present study, the possible association was assessed by a meta-analysis. METHODS:Relevant articles were identified for the period ranging from Jan 1998 up to March 2013. Pooled odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were appropriately derived from fixed effects or random-effects models. RESULTS:Ten case-control studies with a total of 1529 asthma cases and 2399 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The association between CC10 +38A/G polymorphism and asthma risk was determined in dominant model, recessive model, additive model, and codominant model. In dominant model, CC10 +38A/G polymorphism seemed to be associated with elevated asthma risk (OR = 1.62; 95% CI, 1.23-2.12; P = 0.0005). Subgroup analyses by ethnicity also found significant associations between this polymorphism and asthma risk in Asians and Caucasians. RESULTS from other genetic models further identified this possible association. CONCLUSION:This meta-analysis suggests that CC10 +38A/G polymorphism confers asthma risk.

Project description:IntroductionAsthma and stroke share many risk factors. Previous meta-analysis has indicated that asthma is associated with an increased risk of stroke. However, this study were limited by the small number of articles included and the lack of subgroup analyses of different stroke types and different populations. This meta-analysis aimed to synthesize evidence systematically to investigate the impact of asthma on stroke.MethodsWe searched Medline (via PubMed), Web of Science and EMBASE databases and manually identified eligible studies (inception dates to December 25, 2021) that analyzed the association between asthma and stroke. We conducted quality assessment to evaluate the risk of bias of studies and sensitivity analyses to test the robustness of results.ResultsWe included 8 cohort studies and 10 cross-sectional studies comprised 3,011,016 participants. We found patients with asthma had a higher risk of stroke than patients without asthma [relative risk (RR): 1.34, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.21-1.47]. Moreover, asthma significantly increased the risk of ischemic stroke (RR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.06-1.47) without increasing the risk of hemorrhagic stroke (RR: 1.08, 95% CI: 0.87-1.34). Asthma increased the risk of stroke in both men (RR: 1.20, 95% CI: 1.10-1.32) and women (RR: 1.29, 95% CI: 1.12-1.48) with no significant difference between the sexes. We also found that patients with inactive asthma, child-onset asthma, or no smoking history did not have an increased risk of stroke.ConclusionsThese results supported the finding that asthma could significantly increase the risk of stroke, but this impact was not consistent in different populations.Systematic review registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/display_record.php?RecordID=290745, identifier: CRD42021290745.

Project description:BackgroundPsoriasis is a multifactorial disease associated with an increased risk for metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases. Elevated levels of homocysteine (Hcy) are a marker of cardiovascular risk. Several studies have evaluated the associations between psoriasis and Hcy levels; however, the results remain inconclusive.ObjectiveWe performed a systematic review of the literature and a meta-analysis to better understand the relationship between psoriasis and Hcy.MethodsFive scientific databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science) were searched to identify relevant studies. A review of 307 publications identified 16 studies that directly assessed plasma levels of Hcy in psoriasis patients.ResultsA total of 16 studies including 2,091 subjects were included in the meta-analysis. Hcy levels were significantly higher in psoriasis patients relative to healthy controls (weighted mean difference [WMD], 3.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.58∼5.02; I 2=82.1%). Subgroup analyses revealed that patients with higher mean psoriasis area severity index (PASI) scores (PASI>10) had significantly higher Hcy levels compared to healthy controls (WMD, 4.17; 95% CI, 1.18∼7.16; I 2=88.3%), whereas patients with lower mean PASI scores (PASI ≤10) had not (WMD, 0.76; 95% CI, -1.84∼3.35; I 2=72.2%).ConclusionThis meta-analysis found that psoriasis patients, in particular those with PASI >10, had significantly higher Hcy levels compared to healthy controls. Further research is needed to determine the association between Hcy levels and psoriasis severity.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Asthma is a common complex chronic, inflammatory polygenic disease with heterogeneous manifestations, affecting individuals of all age groups and posing an immense burden on healthcare resources. A number of studies have identified the association between a disintegrin and metalloprotease 33 (ADAM33) polymorphisms and asthma risk, however, the results still remain inconclusive. The objective of the present study was to identify the effect of ADAM33 variants in asthma susceptibility. METHODS:Eligible case-control studies published between January 2000 and June 2018 was searched and retrieved from online electronic databases. The odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence interval (CI) was employed to calculate the effect. RESULTS:A total of 63 case-control studies were finally screened out, including 13,280 asthma patients and 13,340 controls. Eleven SNPs of ADAM33 gene were identified. Our results detected a significant association between ADAM33 T2, Q1, F?+?1 and AA genotype of T?+?1 polymorphisms and asthma risk in total population. Subgroup analysis by ethnicities showed that the alleles and genotypes of T2, Q1 and F?+?1 polymorphisms were associated with asthma susceptibility among Asian populations, while V4 polymorphism was associated with asthma among Caucasian populations. Subgroup analysis by ages showed that T2, F?+?1 and ST?+?4 polymorphisms were associated with childhood asthma, while Q1 and V4 polymorphisms were associated with asthma risk in adults. Subgroup analysis by asthma severity showed that only the G allele of ADAM33 T1 polymorphism was associated with the severity of asthma when compared with the controls. In addition, T2, Q1 and F?+?1 polymorphisms of ADAM33 were significantly associated with increased the asthma risk in Chinese asthma patients. CONCLUSIONS:Our results found that T2, Q1 and F?+?1 polymorphisms of ADAM33 gene might contribute to asthma risk. Future well-designed case-control studies with large population and more ethnicities are still needed to estimate the association.

Project description:Evidence is increasingly accumulated about multiple roles for the ?2-adrenoceptor gene in asthma. The results were inconsistent partly due to small sample sizes. To assess the association between ?2-adrenoceptor gene polymorphisms and asthma risk, a meta-analysis was performed.We comprehensively searched the PubMed, EMBASE, BIOSIS Previews databases and extracted data from all eligible articles to estimate the association between ?2-adrenoceptor gene polymorphisms and asthma risk. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.Thirty-seven studies involving 6648 asthma patients and 15943 controls were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, significant associations were found in allelic genetic model (OR = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.01 ? 1.12), recessive genetic model (OR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.02 ? 1.21) for Arg/Gly16. Stratified by ethnicity and age, significant associations were also found in Asian population in allelic genetic model, recessive genetic model and addictive model. For Gln/Glu27, no significant association was found when we combined all eligible studies. Age stratification showed significant associations in adults in allelic genetic model and recessive genetic model, but no significant association was found among Asians and Caucasians in ethnicity stratification.This meta-analysis implied that the ?2-adrenoceptor Arg/Gly16 polymorphism was likely to contribute to asthma risk in Asian population. Gln/Glu27 polymorphism might be a contributor to asthma susceptibility for adults.

Project description:ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to explore the association between the TNF-α rs1800629 (also refers as -308G/A) polymorphism and asthma susceptibility.MethodsWe searched the Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) and Wanfang databases. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to calculate the strength of association.ResultsA total of 34 studies involving 5477 asthma patients and 5962 controls were included in present study. The results indicated that TNF-α rs1800629 polymorphism was significantly associated with asthma risk in a recessive genetic model (OR = 1.46, 95% CI 1.21-1.76, P<0.0001). Subgroup analyses found that the TNF-α rs1800629 polymorphism was significantly associated with asthma risk in West Asians and South Asians (OR = 2.47, 95% CI = 1.48-4.12, P = 0.0005; OR = 1.83, 95% CI = 1.42-2.36, P<0.00001), but not East Asians and Caucasians. Furthermore, significant association also was observed in allergic asthma (OR = 1.51, 95% CI = 1.24-1.83, P<0.0001), adults and children (OR = 1.43, 95 CI% = 1.07-1.91, P = 0.02; OR = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.19-2.06, P = 0.001).ConclusionsThis meta-analysis suggested that the rs1800629 polymorphism in TNF-α was a risk factor for asthma.

Project description:BackgroundA few recent studies have suggested that regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) polymorphisms (-403 G/A, -28C/G) are associated with asthma. However, there still existed studies which did not confirm these correlations.ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship of RANTES and asthma using a meta-analysis.MethodsPubmed, Embase, and Cochrane library databases were systemically searched. Data were extracted by two independent reviewers and pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated.ResultsEighteen studies were enrolled, including a total of 2558 cases and 2630 controls of -403 G/A, as well as 3311 cases and 4031 controls of -28C/G in this meta-analysis. The overall ORs and 95% CIs of -403 G/A were 1.19, 1.06-1.33 (P<0.001) and 1.25, 1.03-1.51 (P?=?0.933) in dominant and recessive models, respectively. The overall ORs and 95% CIs of -28G were 1.23, 1.09-1.39 (P?=?0.221) and 1.76, 1.32-2.34 (P?=?0.356) in dominant and recessive models, respectively. No publication bias among studies was showed.ConclusionsThis meta-analysis showed that RANTES -403 G/A polymorphism was a risk factor for asthma, while -28C/G polymorphism were not associated with asthma.

Project description:ObjectiveWe conducted a meta-analysis to summarize the evidence from epidemiological studies of the association between asthma and autism spectrum disorder (ASD).MethodsA literature search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane library for studies published before February 2nd, 2016. Observational studies investigating the association between asthma and ASD were included. A random effects model was used to calculate the pooled risk estimates for the outcome. Subgroup analysis was used to explore potential sources of heterogeneity and publication bias was estimated using Begg's and Egger's tests.ResultsTen studies encompassing 175,406 participants and 8,809 cases of ASD were included in this meta-analysis. In the cross-sectional studies, the prevalence of asthma in ASD was 20.4%, while the prevalence of asthma in controls was 15.4% (P < 0.001). The pooled odds ratio (OR) for the prevalence of asthma in ASD in the cross-sectional studies was 1.26 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.98-1.61) (P = 0.07), with moderate heterogeneity (I2 = 65.0%, P = 0.02) across studies. In the case-control studies, the pooled OR for the prevalence of asthma in ASD was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.68-1.43) (P = 0.94), and there was no evidence of an association between asthma and ASD. No evidence of significant publication bias on the association between asthma and ASD was found.ConclusionsIn conclusion, the results of this meta-analysis do not suggest an association between asthma and ASD. Further prospective studies ascertaining the association between asthma and ASD are warranted.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Previous studies have indicated that chitinase 3-like 1 (CHI3L1) gene rs4950928 polymorphism and acidic mammalian chitinase (AMCase or CHIA) gene rs10494132 polymorphism are associated with the risk of asthma. However, the results are inconsistent because of small sample size and varied ethnicity and age in studies. Therefore, a systematic meta-analysis was important to clarify the effect of CHI3L1 rs4950928 polymorphism and CHIA rs10494132 variant on asthma risk. METHODS:An electronic literature search was conducted to identify all the eligible studies. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated and sensitivity analysis as well as publication bias were assessed to investigate the associations. All statistical analyses were performed using STATA 12.0. RESULTS:Eight published articles with 10 case-control studies were included, 5 studies were of CHI3L1 rs4950928 polymorphism and another 5 studies involved CHIA rs10494132 polymorphism. Overall, no significant association was found between CHI3L1 polymorphism and asthma susceptibility. After stratified according to ethnicity, CHI3L1 rs4950928 variant was associated with decreased asthma risk in Caucasians (GG?+?GC vs. CC: OR?=?0.621, 95% CI?=?0.484-0.797, P?=?0.000; GC vs. CC: OR?=?0.612, 95% CI?=?0.470-0.796, P?=?0.000; G vs. C: OR?=?0.696, 95% CI?=?0.567-0.856, P?=?0.001). When stratified population by age, there was no association in children under all genetic models. As for CHIA rs10494132 polymorphism, no evidence of association between CHIA rs10494132 polymorphism and asthma risk was identified. Furthermore, subgroup analysis by ethnicity revealed a positive correlation between CHIA rs10494132 polymorphism and asthma risk among Asians (TT vs. TC?+?CC: OR?=?1.476, 95% CI?=?1.071-2.032, P?=?0.017; T vs. C: OR?=?1.326, 95% CI?=?1.024-1.717, P?=?0.032). Additionally, in the subgroup analysis conducted according to age, CHIA rs10494132 variant was also found to be associated with the increased risk of asthma in children (TT vs. TC?+?CC: OR?=?1.472, 95% CI?=?1.067-2.030, P?=?0.019; T vs. C: OR?=?1.320, 95% CI?=?1.016-1.713, P?=?0.037). CONCLUSIONS:The G allele of CHI3L1 rs4950928 might be a protective factor against the development of asthma. However, the rs10494132 polymorphism of CHIA might be a risk factor for asthma.

Project description:This study aimed to investigate the association between ADAM metallopeptidase domain 33 (ADAM33) gene polymorphisms and the risk of childhood asthma. The relevant studies about the relationship between ADAM33 gene polymorphisms and childhood asthma were searched from electronic databases and the deadline of retrieval was May 2016. The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ADAM33 (rs511898, rs2280092, rs3918396, rs528557, rs2853209, rs44707, rs2280091 and rs2280089) were analyzed based on several models including the allele, codominant, recessive and dominant models. The results showed that the ADAM33 rs2280091 polymorphism in all four genetic models was associated with an increased risk of childhood asthma. Positive associations were also found between the polymorphisms rs2280090, rs2787094, rs44707 and rs528557 and childhood asthma in some genetic models. This meta-analysis suggested that ADAM33 polymorphisms rs2280091, rs2280090, rs2787094, rs44707 and rs528557 were significantly associated with a high risk of childhood asthma.
