Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background
Previous studies on the association between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and stroke showed conflicting results.Methods
Articles published before July 2020 were searched in databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Medline, EMBASE, and Google Scholar). We computed all multivariate odds ratios (ORs) or relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) by using STATA 12.0 software.Results
The meta-analysis indicated that IBD was associated with an elevated risk of stroke (OR/RR = 1.21, 95% CI 1.08 to 1.34, I2 = 83.6%, p < .001). In addition, both Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) were associated with a higher risk of stroke (CD: OR/RR = 1.25, 95% CI 1.03 to 1.52, I2 = 86.1%, p < .001; UC: OR/RR = 1.09, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.15, I2 = 54.7%, p = .051). Subgroup study showed that IBD was associated with a higher risk of stroke in cohort studies (RR = 1.21, 95% CI 1.08 to 1.36, I2 = 85.0%, p < .001). Subgroup study showed that IBD was related to an elevated risk of stroke in both Caucasian and Asian groups (Caucasian group: OR/RR = 1.13, 95% CI 1.05 to 1.23, I2 = 44.6%, p = .094; Asian group: OR/RR =1.36, 95% CI 1.07 to 1.74, I2 = 92.5%, p < .001).Conclusion
IBD is a risk factor for stroke. More high-quality large-sample epidemiologic studies about the relationship between IBD and stroke should be further conducted.

Project description:MethodsMEDLINE, Embase, and CENTRAL were systematically searched for correlative studies till 2 November 2019. RevMan5.3 was used to estimate relevance.ResultsThree studies with 166008 participants were included. The risk of pancreatitis significantly increased in the patients with CD (OR, 3.40; 95% CI, 2.70-4.28; P < 0.00001) and UC (OR, 2.49; 95% CI, 1.91-3.26; P < 0.00001). Increased risks of CD (OR, 12.90; 95% CI, 5.15-32.50; P < 0.00001) and UC (OR, 2.80; 95% CI, 1.00-7.86; P = 0.05) were found in patients with chronic pancreatitis. As for patients with acute pancreatitis, there were significant association of CD (OR, 3.70; 95% CI, 1.90-7.60; P = 0.0002), but were not UC.ConclusionsThe evidence confirmed an association between pancreatitis and IBD. When pancreatitis patients have chronic diarrhea and mucus blood stool or IBD patients have repeated abdominal pain and weight loss, they should consult pancreatic and gastrointestinal specialists.

Project description:BackgroundWe aimed to quantitatively assess the potential relationship between kidney stones and coronary heart disease or stroke.MethodsA meta-analysis was conducted on eligibly studies published before 31 May 2016 in PubMed or Embase. The data were pooled, and the relationship was assessed by the random-effect model with inverse variance-weighted procedure. The results were expressed as relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CI).ResultsEight studies of 11 cohorts (n = 11) were included in our analysis with 3,658,360 participants and 157,037 cases. We found that a history of kidney stones was associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD) (RR = 1.24; 95%CI: 1.14-1.36; I = 79.0%, n = 11); similar effect on myocardial infarction, a serious condition of CHD, was observed (RR = 1.24; 95%CI: 1.10-1.40; I = 80.4%, n = 8). We also found that a history of kidney stones may increase the risk of stroke (RR = 1.21, 95%CI: 1.06-1.38; I = 54.7%, n = 4). In subgroup analysis, the risk of coronary heart disease was higher in men (RR = 1.23, 95%CI: 1.02-1.49) while the risk for stroke was higher in women (RR = 1.12; 95%CI: 1.03-1.21). No obvious publications bias was detected (Egger test: P = .47).ConclusionKidney stones are associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease and stroke, and the effect may differ by sex.

Project description:BackgroundThe relationship between acute kidney injury (AKI) and stroke needs quantitative summary. Therefore, we analyzed the associations between AKI and stroke including the incidence, risk factors of AKI after stroke, and the influence of AKI after a stroke on prognosis of stroke.MethodsArticles published until November 2019 were searched based on the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Medline, and Google Scholar. We computed the following results [rates of AKI incidence after a stroke, odds ratios (ORs) or relative risks (RRs) estimates and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between risk factors and AKI, ORs or RRs and the CIs for the association between AKI and outcomes after a stroke] by using STATA 13.0 software.ResultsThe study reported an overall incidence of AKI of 12% with a random-effects model. Additionally, the present study showed that higher National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score on admission and history of hypertension were associated with higher risk of AKI after stroke. Moreover, the study showed that AKI after stroke was associated with higher in-hospital mortality, higher 1-month mortality, higher long-term mortality, and poorer functional outcome.ConclusionsAcute kidney injury appears to be a common complication after stroke and is related to increased mortality and disability in stroke. Additionally, high NIHSS score on admission and history of hypertension were the critical risk factors for the AKI after stroke. More large-scale studies should be made to explore AKI after stroke.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies showed inconsistent results regarding associations between diabetes mellitus (DM) and risk of Parkinson's disease (PD). The study aimed to make a meta-analysis to clarify whether DM is a risk factor for PD.MethodsWe searched for articles regarding the effect of DM on risk of PD and published before July 2020 with search terms as follows: ("diabetes mellitus" OR "diabetes") AND ("Parkinson's disease" OR "PD") in the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Google Scholar. We used STATA 12.0 software to compute multivariate odds ratio (OR) or relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) regarding the association between DM and risk of PD.ResultsThe present study finally included 7 case-control studies (including 26,654 PD patients) and 9 cohort studies (including 3,819,006 DM patients) exploring the association between DM and risk of PD. The meta-analysis indicated that DM was related to elevated risk of PD (OR/RR = 1.15, 95% CI 1.03-1.28, I2 = 92.4%, p < .001). Subgroup study showed that DM was associated with higher risk of PD in cohort studies (RR = 1.29, 95% CI 1.15-1.45, I2 = 93.9%, p < .001), whereas no significant association was indicated between DM and risk of PD in case-control studies (OR = 0.74, 95% CI 0.51-1.09, I2 = 82.3%, p < .001). Sensitivity analysis showed no changes in the direction of effect when any one study was excluded from all meta-analyses. In addition, Begg's test, Egger's test, and funnel plot showed no significant risks of publication bias.ConclusionIn conclusion, we have tried to determine whether prior onset of DM may contribute to the risk of developing PD. More and more large-scale prospective studies should be conducted to evaluate the relationship between DM and PD.

Project description:Rosacea has been reported with several systemic comorbidities, but its relationship with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is unclear. Thus, our objective is to conduct a meta-analysis on the association of rosacea with IBD.We conduct a meta-analysis and searched MEDLINE, CENTRAL, and Embase databases for case-controlled and cohort studies that assessed the association of rosacea with IBD from inception to July 2nd, 2018. Two authors independently selected studies, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Disagreement was resolved by discussion. We performed random-effects model meta-analysis to obtain the pooled risk estimates for Crohn disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) in patients with rosacea.We included three case-control and three cohort studies. The risk of bias of included studies was generally low. The meta-analysis on case-control studies showed marginally increased odds of CD (pooled odds ratio (OR) 1.30, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.99-1.69) and a significantly increased odds of UC (pooled OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.43-1.89) in patients with rosacea. The meta-analysis on cohort studies demonstrated significant increased risk of CD (pooled hazard ratio (HR) 1.58, 95% CI 1.14-2.20) and UC (pooled HR 1.18, 95% CI 1.01-1.37) in patients with rosacea.The evidence indicates an association of rosacea with IBD. If patients with rosacea suffer from prolonged abdominal pain, diarrhea, and bloody stool, referral to gastroenterologists may be considered.

Project description:BACKGROUND:ISL1 promotes cardiomyocyte differentiation and plays important roles in heart development. However, whether ISL1 rs1017 polymorphism is associated with the congenital heart disease (CHD) risk remains controversial. METHODS:Five database including PubMed, Cochrane Library, ISI Web of Science, CNKI, and Wan Fang were searched by using key words "Insulin Gene Enhancer Protein ISL1" and "Single Nucleotide Polymorphism," and "Congenital Heart Disease." Five relative articles including 6 independent studies containing 2132 cases and 3812 controls were finally recruited to our study. Meta-analyses were performed by pooling odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) from included studies using STATA 12.0 software. RESULTS:The associations between ISL1 rs1017 polymorphism and the risk of CHD were statistically significant under the allele model (T vs A; OR: 1.421; 95% CI: 1.072-1.882), heterozygous model (AT vs AA; OR: 1.342; 95% CI: 1.019-1.767), and dominant model (AT+ TT vs AA; OR: 1.466; 95% CI: 1.059-2.028). Sensitivity analysis indicated that the results were not stable. Subgroup analysis demonstrated that associations were found in Caucasians under the allele model and the heterozygous model (P?<?.05), but not the dominant model (P?>?.05). CONCLUSION:In summary, our meta-analysis results suggest that the T allele of ISL1 rs1017 is a risk factor for CHD. However, further studies based on large sample size and multi-ethnic population should be conducted to further prove this correlation.

Project description:ObjectiveEndometriosis is a common chronic, gynecological disease. Despite many studies on the role of N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) in endometriosis, its clinical significance is unclear. In this study, associations between NAT2 phenotypes as well as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within NAT2 (i.e. rs1799929, rs1799930, rs1208, and rs1799931) and endometriosis risk were evaluated using a meta-analysis approach.MethodsEmbase, PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), Wanfang databases, Cochrane Library for clinical trials, and Web of Science were searched to identify relevant articles. ORs (odds ratios) and 95% CIs (95% confidence intervals) were used to estimate the associations between NAT2 polymorphisms and endometriosis risk. Heterogeneity among included studies was also assessed. In addition, a subgroup analysis of NAT2 phenotypes and endometriosis risk based on ethnicity was performed.ResultsNine case-control studies met the inclusion criteria. The odds ratio was 2.30 (95% CI: 1.61-3.28) for the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype versus the intermediate + fast acetylation phenotype in the Asian population. These results suggest that Asian individuals with the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype have a 130% increased risk of endometriosis. A significant association was also found for rs1799930 (OR = 0.74; 95% CI, 0.59-0.92), suggesting that individuals with this mutant genotype have a 26% decreased risk of endometriosis.ConclusionsThe rs1799930 mutant genotypes are associated with a decreased risk of endometriosis. No statistically significant associations were found between rs1799931, rs1208, or rs1799929 and endometriosis. Based on a subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype was found to increase the risk of endometriosis in Asians. No statistically significant associations were found between the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype and endometriosis risk in Caucasians. Accordingly, NAT2 phenotypes and SNPs are potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Murine double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) plays an important role in the downregulation of P53 tumor suppressor gene. MDM2 inhibits P53 transcriptional activity and thereby results in accelerated tumor formation. Overexpression of MDM2 has been found in several cancer types including endometrial cancer. SNP309 is located in the promoter region of MDM2 and contributes to the overexpression of MDM2. The association between MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism and endometrial cancer risk has been investigated in several studies; however, the conclusion remains controversial. OBJECTIVES:We performed the present meta-analysis to give a comprehensive conclusion of the association between MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism and endometrial cancer susceptibility. METHODS:We conducted a literature research on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, OVID, Web of Science, Wan Fang, CNKI, and CQVIP databases up to July 31, 2018. Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to assess the quality of studies. We evaluated the strength of association by combining odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in 5 different genetic models under a fixed-effect model or random-effect model. We further conducted subgroup analysis by ethnicity, source of control, histological type, clinical type, grade, and stage of tumor. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also performed. RESULTS:Nine eligible studies were finally included in our meta-analysis. We found MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism increased the risk of endometrial cancer under allele model (OR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.06-1.41, P?=?.005), homozygote model (OR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.13-1.81, P?=?.003) and recessive model (OR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.17-2.04, P?=?.002). Subgroup analysis suggested a similar elevated risk in both Asians and Caucasians. We identified a strong association of enhanced susceptibility to endometrial cancer in endometrioid group (OR: 2.13, 95% CI: 1.28-3.54, P?=?.004) and Type I group (OR: 1.89, 95% CI: 1.25-2.86, P?=?.002) under dominant model. We identified no significant publication bias according to Egger's test. CONCLUSIONS:Our meta-analysis suggested that MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism increased the risk of endometrial cancer significantly, especially in endometrioid and Type I endometrial cancer, indicating MDM2 could serve as a potential diagnostic factor marker for endometrial cancer.

Project description:Background & aimsPatients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) might be at increased risk for certain malignancies. We evaluated the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in patients with IBD and determined how immunosuppressive and biologic medications affect this risk.MethodsWe performed retrospective cohort and nested case-control studies by using administrative data from PharMetrics Patient Centric Database. In the cohort study, 26,403 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and 26,974 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) were each matched to 3 non-IBD controls. NMSC risk was evaluated by incidence rate ratio (IRR). In the nested case-control study, 387 CD patients and 355 UC patients with NMSC were each matched to 4 IBD patients without NMSC by using incidence density sampling. Conditional logistic regression was used to determine the association between specific IBD medication use and NMSC.ResultsIn the cohort study, the incidence of NMSC was higher among patients with IBD compared with controls (IRR, 1.64; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.51-1.78). In the nested-case control study, recent thiopurine use (< or =90 days) was associated with NMSC (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 3.56; 95% CI, 2.81-4.50), as was recent biologic use among patients with CD (adjusted OR, 2.07; 95% CI, 1.28-3.33). Persistent thiopurine use (>365 days) was associated with NMSC (adjusted OR, 4.27; 95% CI, 3.08-5.92), as was persistent biologic use among patients with CD (adjusted OR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.07-4.46).ConclusionsPatients with IBD, especially those who receive thiopurines, are at risk for NMSC. Appropriate counseling and monitoring of such patients with IBD are recommended.

Project description:AIM:To estimate the risk of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS:From January 2010 to December 2013, patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) were identified, based on both the International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision (ICD-10) and the rare, intractable disease registration program codes from the National Health Insurance (NHI) database in South Korea. We compared 38812 patients with IBD to age- and sex-matched non-IBD controls with a ratio of 1:3. Patients newly diagnosed with ESRD were identified with the ICD-10 code. RESULTS:During a mean follow-up of 4.9 years, ESRD was detected in 79 (0.2%) patients with IBD and 166 (0.1%) controls. The incidence of ESRD in patients with IBD was 0.42 per 1000 person-years. Patients with IBD had a significantly higher risk of ESRD than controls [adjusted hazard ratio (HR) = 3.03; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.77-5.20; P < 0.001]. The incidences (per 1000 person-years) of ESRD were 0.51 in patients with CD and 0.13 in controls, respectively (adjusted HR = 6.33; 95%CI: 2.75-14.56; P < 0.001). In contrast, the incidence of ESRD was similar between the UC and control groups (0.37 vs 0.37 per 1000 person-years; adjusted HR = 2.01; 95%CI: 0.90-4.51; P = 0.089). CONCLUSION:The risk of ESRD was elevated in patients with CD, but not UC. Patients with CD should be monitored carefully for signs of renal insufficiency.
