“…Similar results were revealed by studies done on Slovakian men having episodes of MI (Bucova et al, 2009). However, in a study done on MI patients from Tunisia population showed a significant but not independent association of MCP-1 -2518 G-allele with MI ( Jemaa et al, 2008). In the present study, although statistically significant association was not observed in comparison of CAD and controls, but a trend towards higher G allele in CAD cases, especially, the GG homozygotes has been observed.…”

“…A strong link was found between CCL2 polymorphism and autoimmune diseases. CCL2 (-2518 A/G) single nucleotide polymorphism has been shown to be associated with the chronic stable angina pectoris [23], and a significant but not independent association was observed between the (-2518G/A) polymorphism of the CCL2 gene and myocardial infarction [24]. This single nucleotide polymorphism has also been shown to be involved with pulmonary sarcoidosis [25].…”

“…The study, which is based on the analysis of 13 studies (Szalai et al, 2001;Simeoni et al, 2004;Cermakova et al, 2005;McDermott et al, 2005;Bjarnadottir et al, 2006;Bucova et al, 2008;Cam et al, 2008;Jemaa et al, 2008;Bucova et al, 2009aBucova et al, , 2009bZhang et al, 2009;van Wijk et al, 2010;Zhong et al, 2010), found a probable increase in CAD with the MCP-1 -2518G allele in a population of Caucasian. However, the result might have been caused by publication bias and insufficient sample size.…”

“…Furthermore, one case-only study (Alioglu et al, 2009) and two family-based studies (McGlinchey et al, 2004;Kim et al, 2007) were also excluded. Finally, 21 studies (Szalai et al, 2001;Simeoni et al, 2004;Cermakova et al, 2005;McDermott et al, 2005;Bjarnadottir et al, 2006;Iwai et al, 2006;Cam et al, 2008;Bucova et al, 2008;Jemaa et al, 2008;Bucova et al, 2009a;Bucova et al, 2009b;Zhang et al, 2009;Zhong et al, 2010;van Wijk et al, 2010;El Mahgoub et al, 2011;Lin et al, 2012;Wang & Zhang, 2012;Yang et al, 2012;Xu et al, 2013;Kaur et al, 2013;Nasibullin et al, 2014) with a total of 8,735 cases and 12,300 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The process of the study selection and exclusion is shown in Figure 1.…”
