Association between cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) 8473 T?>?C polymorphism and cancer risk: a meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Numerous studies have investigated the relationship between COX-2 8473 T?>?C polymorphism and cancer susceptibility, however, the results remain controversial. Therefore, we carried out the present meta-analysis to obtain a more accurate assessment of this potential association. METHODS:In this meta-analysis, 79 case-control studies were included with a total of 38,634 cases and 55,206 controls. We searched all relevant articles published in PubMed, EMBASE, OVID, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang Data, till September 29, 2017. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the strength of the association. We performed subgroup analysis according to ethnicity, source of controls, genotyping method and cancer type. Moreover, Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was implemented to decrease the risk of type I error and estimate whether the current evidence of the results was sufficient and conclusive. RESULTS:Overall, our results indicated that 8473 T?>?C polymorphism was not associated with cancer susceptibility. However, stratified analysis showed that the polymorphism was associated with a statistically significant decreased risk for nasopharyngeal cancer and bladder cancer, but an increased risk for esophageal cancer and skin cancer. Interestingly, TSA demonstrated that the evidence of the result was sufficient in this study. CONCLUSION:No significant association between COX-2 8473 T?>?C polymorphism and cancer risk was detected.

Project description:Introduction: Association between Cyclin D1 (CCND1) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs9344 and cancer risk is paradoxical. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to explore the association between CCND1 variant and overall cancer risk in Indian population. Methods: Data from 12 published studies including 3739 subjects were collected using Pubmed and Embase. RevMan (Review Manager) 5.3 was used to perform the meta-analysis. OR with 95%CI were calculated to establish the association. Results: Overall, the cumulative findings demonstrated that CCND1 polymorphism (rs9344) was not significantly associated with cancer risk in all the genetic models studied (dominant model: GG vs GA+AA: OR (95%CI) = 0.81 (0.60-1.09), P=0.17; recessive model: GG+GA vs AA: OR (95%CI) = 1.23 (0.96-1.59), P=0.11; co-dominant model: GG vs AA: OR (95%CI) = 1.35 (0.93-1.97), P=0.12; co-dominant model: (GG vs GA: OR (95%CI) = 1.16 (0.85-1.59), P=0.34; allelic model: A vs G: OR (95%CI) = 1.20 (1.14-2.85), P=0.23; allelic model: G vs A: OR (95%CI) = 0.83 (0.62-1.12), P=0.23). Subgroup analysis according to cancer types presented significant association of CCND1 polymorphism and increased breast cancer risk in dominant model (GG vs GA+AA: OR = 2.75, 95%CI = 1.54-4.90, P=0.0006) and allelic model (G vs A: OR = 1.63, 95%CI = 1.22-2.19, P=0.001). An increased esophageal cancer risk in recessive model (GG+GA vs AA: OR = 1.51, 95%CI = 1.05-2.16, P=0.03) and co-dominant model (GG vs AA: OR = 2.51, 95%CI = 1.10-5.71, P=0.03) was detected. A higher risk for colorectal cancer was detected under both the co-dominant models (GG vs AA: OR = 2.46, 95%CI = 1.34-4.51, P=0.004 and GG vs GA: OR = 1.74, 95%CI = 1.14-2.67, P=0.01). However, in case of cervical cancer risk a non-significant association was reported under the recessive model (GG+GA vs AA: OR = 1.52, 95%CI = 0.60-3.90, P=0.38) with reference to CCND1 polymorphism (rs9344). The trial sequential analysis (TSA) showed that the cumulative Z-curve neither crossed the trial sequential monitoring boundary nor reached the required information size (RIS). Thus, present meta-analysis remained inconclusive due to insufficient evidence. Conclusion:CCND1 polymorphism rs9344 may not have a role in overall cancer susceptibility in Indian population. However, this polymorphism acts as a crucial risk factor for breast, esophageal, and colorectal cancer but not for cervical cancer. Future studies with larger sample size are required to draw a reliable conclusion.

Project description:Background: It is still conflicting for the correlation between cancer susceptibility and Aurora-A V57I (rs1047972) gene variant from the published researches. This meta-analysis was performed to access the correlation between cancer susceptibility and Aurora-A rs1047972 gene polymorphism by using meta-analysis methods. Methods: Eligible studies published before Nov 1, 2019 were systematically searched in PMC, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang databases, in order to collect qualified case-control or cohort studies. The odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were used to evaluate the correlation between Aurora-A rs1047972 gene polymorphism and cancer risk. Sensitivity analysis was used to examine the stability of the results; Egger's test and Begg's funnel chart were used to assess possible publication bias. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was used to access whether the sample size of our meta-analysis was sufficient. Results: The sample set extracted from 24 case-control studies involving 35,926 subjects (14,639 cases and 21,287 controls) for the association of Aurora-A rs1047972 gene polymorphism with cancer susceptibility. In our meta-analysis, Aurora-A rs1047972 polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of cancer susceptibility in overall populations (GA+GG vs. AA: P=0.039, OR=1.106; 95% CI 1.005-1.218; AA vs. GG: P=0.003, OR= 0.814; 95% CI, 0.710-0.934), and the GA/GG variant might be a risk factor for cancer susceptibility. In the stratified analysis by ethnicity, we found a significant association between Aurora-A rs1047972 variant and the susceptibility of the cancer in Caucasian population. In a subgroup analysis by cancer type, we observed a significantly increased susceptibility of lung cancer. In addition, an increased risk was found between Aurora-A rs1047972 polymorphism and cancer susceptibility in MALDI-TOF group and among population-based study (PB) patients. Our results were in a sufficiently large number of participants according to TSA and did not require more studies to confirm such association. Conclusion: Our meta-analysis revealed that the susceptibility of cancer was associated with Aurora-A rs1047972 polymorphism, especially in Caucasians. And the GA/GG variant might be a risk factor for cancer susceptibility.

Project description:BackgroundSeveral meta-analyses of the relationship between endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) T-786C gene polymorphism and chronic kidney disease (CKD) have been published. However, the results of these studies were inconsistent, and it is undetermined whether sample sizes are sufficient to reach a definite conclusion.ObjectiveTo elucidate the relationship between T-786C and CKD by combining previous studies with our case-control sample and incorporate trial sequential analysis (TSA) to verify whether the sample size is adequate to draw a definite conclusion.MethodsPubMed and Embase databases were searched for relevant articles on eNOS T-786C and CKD before February 28, 2021. TSA was also incorporated to ascertain a conclusion. A total of 558 hemodialysis cases in the case-control study was recruited from nine dialysis centers in the northern area of Taiwan in 2020. Additionally, 640 healthy subjects of the control group, with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, were selected from participants of the annual elderly health examination program at the Tri-Service General Hospital. The functional analysis was based on eQTL data from GTExPortal.ResultsAfter screening with eligibility criteria, 15 papers were included and eventually combined in a meta-analysis. The result of the TSA showed that the sample size for Caucasians was adequate to ascertain the correlation between eNOS T-786C and CKD but was insufficient for Asians. Therefore, we added our case-control samples (n = 1198), though not associated with CKD (odds ratio [OR] = 1.01, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.69-1.46), into a meta-analysis, which supported that eNOS T-786C was significantly associated with CKD in Asians (OR = 1.39, 95% CI = 1.04-1.85) by using an adequate cumulative sample size (n = 4572) analyzed by TSA. Data of eQTL from GTEx showed that T-786C with the C minor allele exhibited relatively lower eNOS mRNA expression in whole blood, indicating the hazardous role of eNOS T-786C in CKD.ConclusionseNOS T-786C genetic polymorphism was of conclusive significance in the association with CKD among Asians in our meta-analysis. Our case-control samples play a decisive role in changing conclusions from indefinite to definite.
