Association between adiponectin gene T45G polymorphism and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease risk: a meta-analysis

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Numerous epidemiological investigations have evaluated the association between adiponectin gene T45G polymorphism and risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the results of these studies have proven to be inconsistent. Therefore, we conducted a metaanalysis to obtain a more accurate estimation of this association. Published articles were retrieved from PubMed and Web of Science databases and pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using fixed-or… Show more

“…Like all meta‐analysis, this study certainly has some limitations. First, due to lack of raw data, adjusted analyses were inapplicable, and we have to admit that failure to perform further adjusted analyses for potential confounding factors might impact the reliability of our findings (Zhang, Guo, Qin, & Li, ; Zhang, Zhu, Huo, Qin, & Yuan, ). Second, associations between rs58542926 polymorphisms and chronic liver disease might also be modified by gene‐environmental interactions.…”

“…Second, associations between rs58542926 polymorphisms and chronic liver disease might also be modified by geneenvironmental interactions. However, we could not perform relevant analyses accordingly since most of studies did not investigate these associations (Abdel-Hamed, Ghattas, Mesbah, Saleh, & Abo-Elmatty, 2017;Zhang, Guo, et al, 2016;Zhang, Zhu, et al, 2016). Third, gray literatures that were not formally published in academic journals were not considered to be eligible for analyses in this meta-analysis since it is hard to determine their quality.…”

“…Both groups of data met our inclusion criteria and were included in our meta-analysis. Among the 28 included studies, 12 studies were carried out in China, [14–25] 3 in Egypt, [7,26,27] 2 in Japan, [28,29] 1 in Taiwan China, [30] 1 studies were performed in the United States, [31] 1 in Korea, [13] 1 in Spain, [32] 1 in Iran [33] and 1 in Switzerland, [34] 1 in Greece, [35] 2 South Korea, [36,37] 1 in Guatemala, [38] 1 in Bangladesh [39] (Table 1). In summary, 3 studies were performed in Africa and twenty in the Asia, and 5 studies were carried out in the western countries.…”
