Apolipoprotein E polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes: A meta-analysis of 30 studies including 5423 cases and 8197 controls
(2010)Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a highly complicated metabolic disorder for which there is worldwide effort for the identification of susceptibility genes. Polymorphisms of the Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene are associated ... -
Association between the GLUT1 gene polymorphism and the risk of diabetic nephropathy: a meta-analysis
(2005)The association between diabetic nephropathy (DN) and the XbaI polymorphism in the GLUT1 gene has been investigated in several case-control studies. These studies rendered contradictory results: the allele XbalphaI(-) was ... -
Association of paraoxonase 1 gene polymorphisms with risk of Parkinson's disease: a meta-analysis
(2004)Paraoxonase1 (PON1) gene polymorphisms were implicated as risk factors for Parkinson's disease (PD), but the results of case-control studies that investigated these associations were controversial. In order to provide an ... -
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene polymorphisms and schizophrenia: a meta-analysis
(2007)Objectives: To evaluate whether the G196A and C270T polymorphisms of the brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene are associated with increased risk of schizophrenia. Methods: A meta-analysis of nine genetic association ... -
BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and the risk of osteoporosis: A meta-analysis
(2006)A meta-analysis regarding BsmI, TaqI, ApaI and FokI polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene and their associations with osteoporosis in females is reported. The meta-analysis involved 14, seven, seven and three ... -
C677T and A1298C methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression: a meta-analysis of genetic association studies
(2006)A meta-analysis of the previous studies of allelic association between schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and depression with the C677T and A1298C polymorphisms of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene was ... -
Developing the Evidence Base for Cancer Chemoprevention: Use of Meta-Analysis
(2011)Meta-analysis is a quantitative approach for systematically combining the results of previous studies in order to arrive at conclusions about the body of research. It answers a specific research question, includes an ... -
Examining the stability of genetic risk effect as evidence accumulates in the context of meta-analysis
(2013)The recursive cumulative meta-analysis (RCM) of genetic association studies explores the relative change of the cumulative risk effect (e.g. OR) in time, indicating the stability of risk effect as evidence accumulates. ... -
Is 472G/A catechol-O-methyl-transferase gene polymorphism related to panic disorder?
(2007)Objectives Case-control studies relating 472G/A catechol-O-methyl-transferase polymorphism with the risk of developing panic disorder showed inconclusive or contradictory results. To shed some light on these results a ... -
A meta-analysis of genotypes and haplotypes of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphisms in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(2006)A meta-analysis of case-control studies that investigated the association between the C677T and/or A1298C polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was ... -
Polymorphisms of the CD24 Gene Are Associated with Risk of Multiple Sclerosis: A Meta-Analysis
(2015)CD24 is a cell-surface protein mainly expressed in cells of the immune and central nervous system (CNS), cells that play a critical role in the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). In the current study, we investigated ... -
Polymorphisms of the insulin receptor and the insulin receptor substrates genes in polycystic ovary syndrome: A Mendelian randomization meta-analysis
(2010)Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous condition with unknown aetiology which is considered to be the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. In this work we investigated the association ... -
The relationship between C677T methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene polymorphism and retinopathy in type 2 diabetes: a meta-analysis
(2005)The association between retincipathy in type 2 diabetes [diabetic retinopathy (DR)] and the C677T polymorphism in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene has been investigated in several case-control studies. ... -
The role of G196A polymorphism in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor gene in the cause of Parkinson's disease: a meta-analysis
(2005)The association between Parkinson's disease (PD) and the G196A polymorphism in the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene has been investigated in several case-control studies, producing contradictory results: one ...
