Association between the estrogen receptor ? gene polymorphisms rs2234693 and rs9340799 and severe and mild pre-eclampsia: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: This meta-analysis was performed in order to determine the associations between the estrogen receptor ? (ESR1) gene PvuII site (-397T/C, rs2234693) and XbaI site (-351A/G, rs9340799) polymorphisms with severe and mild pre-eclampsia. Eligible studies were identified by searching PubMed, Medline, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and WanFang databases until May 2018. The pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to calculate the associations. Six articles (consisting of seven studies; one article was considered as two separate studies with two different subpopulations) investigated the ESR1 gene PvuII -397T/C and XbaI -351A/G polymorphisms in severe and mild pre-eclampsia patients and included controls. The pooled results indicated an increased risk of severe pre-eclampsia for the XbaI -351A/G polymorphism (OR = 1.67, 95% CI = 1.10-2.25, P=0.017 for GG compared with AA+GA; OR = 1.81, 95% CI = 1.17-2.82, P=0.008 for GG compared with GA). The GG genotype of the ESR1 XbaI polymorphism could be a genetic risk factor for severe pre-eclampsia susceptibility. However, the ESR1 gene PvuII -397T/C polymorphism was not significantly associated with the risk of severe pre-eclampsia, and there was no association between mild pre-eclampsia and the ESR1 gene PvuII -397T/C and XbaI -351A/G polymorphisms separately. The current meta-analysis indicates that the ESR1 XbaI genetic polymorphism may be associated with severe pre-eclampsia. However, there was no association of the ESR1 gene PvuII and XbaI polymorphisms with the risk of mild pre-eclampsia. Owing to the low statistical power, the results may not be sufficiently robust and this conclusion should be interpreted cautiously, which highlights the requirement for large-scale and high-quality studies in this field.

This meta-analysis was performed in order to determine the associations between the estrogen receptor α (ESR1) gene PvuII site (-397T/C, rs2234693) and XbaI site (-351A/G, rs9340799) polymorphisms with severe and mild pre-eclampsia.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a complex disease resulting from the cumulative and interactive effects of large number of genes along with environmental exposure. Therefore, the present study was envisaged as an effort to study the association of candidate genes ESR1 (rs2234693 and rs9340799), CETP (rs708272), MTHFR (rs1801133 and rs2274976) and MS (rs185087) polymorphisms with the risk of CAD, targeting the populations of Jammu (JandK). METHOD:A total of 400 confirmed CAD patients and 400 healthy controls were enrolled for the present study. Genotyping was done by polymerase chain reaction- restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). RESULTS:ESR1 gene (rs9340799) polymorphism was found to be associated with CAD in all the genetic models. The haplotype analysis of ESR1 (rs2234693 and rs9340799) gene revealed that C-G haplotype was conferring approximately 5-fold risk and T-A haplotype was adding 1.4-fold risk towards the disease. 'T' allele of MTHFR rs1801133 SNP was observed to be responsible for development of CAD in our study population (p?<?0.0001). In case of MTHFR (rs1801133 and rs2274976) gene, the haplotype T-G was observed to confer 4.7-fold risk towards CAD whereas haplotype C-G provided nearly a 1.7 fold protection towards development of CAD. For MS gene, rs185087 was also found to be associated with CAD in a co-dominant (p =?0.003 and p =?0.03), dominant (p =?0.001) and allelic models (p?=?0.001). The gene-gene interaction revealed strong epistasis between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), ESR1 rs9340799 and MTHFR rs2274976. Furthermore, the dendrogram for gene-environment dataset indicated moderately synergistic interaction between CETP rs708272 and physical inactivity. CONCLUSION:In the study under reference, a significant association of ESR1-XbaI (rs9340799), MTHFR C677T (rs1801133) and MS A2756G (rs185087) gene polymorphisms with the susceptibility of CAD in the population of Jammu region (JandK) has been observed.

Project description:BACKGROUND: An evidence-based strategy exists to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality associated with severe pre-eclampsia/eclampsia (PE/E), but it may be difficult to implement in low-resource settings. This study examines whether facilities that provide emergency obstetric and newborn care (EmONC) in Afghanistan have the capacity to manage severe PE/E cases. METHODS: A further analysis was conducted of the 2009-10 Afghanistan EmONC Needs Assessment. Assessors observed equipment and supplies available, and services provided at 78 of the 127 facilities offering comprehensive EmONC services and interviewed 224 providers. The providers also completed a written case scenario on severe PE/E. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize facility and provider characteristics. Student t-test, one-way ANOVA, and chi-square tests were performed to determine whether there were significant differences between facility types, doctors and midwives, and trained and untrained providers. RESULTS: The median number of severe PE/E cases in the past year was just 5 (range 0-42) at comprehensive health centers (CHCs) and district hospitals, compared with 44 (range 0-130) at provincial hospitals and 108 (range 32-540) at regional and specialized hospitals (p?<?0.001). Most facilities had the drugs and supplies needed to treat severe PE/E, including the preferred anticonvulsant, magnesium sulfate (MgSO4). One-third of the smallest facilities and half of larger facilities reported administering a second-line drug, diazepam, in some cases. In the case scenario, 96% of doctors and 89% of midwives recognized that MgSO4 should be used to manage severe PE/E, but 42% of doctors and 58% of midwives also thought diazepam had a role to play. Providers who were trained on the use of MgSO4 scored significantly higher than untrained providers on six of 20 items in the case scenario. Providers at larger facilities significantly outscored those at smaller facilities on five items. There was a significant difference between doctors and midwives on only one item: continued use of anti-hypertensives after convulsions are controlled. CONCLUSIONS: Drugs and supplies needed to treat severe PE/E are widely available at EmONC facilities in Afghanistan, but providers lack knowledge in some areas, especially concerning the use of MgSO4 and diazepam. Providers who have specialized training or work at larger facilities are better at managing cases of severe PE/E. The findings suggest a need to clarify service delivery guidelines, offer refresher training, and reinforce best practices with supervision and reinforcement.
