Association of Adiponectin Polymorphism with Metabolic Syndrome Risk and Adiponectin Level with Stroke Risk: A Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Many previous studies have provided evidence that the ADIPOQ +45T>G polymorphism (rs2241766) might cause metabolic syndrome (MS). As a cardiovascular manifestation of MS, the incidence of stroke is associated with adiponectin; however, the results remain controversial and inconsistent. Systematic searches of relevant studies published up to Dec 2014 and Jan 2016 on the ADIPOQ +45T>G polymorphism and the risk of MS and adiponectin levels and the risk of stroke, respectively, were conducted in MEDLINE and EMBASE. The odds ratio (OR) or risk ratio (RR) and their 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were extracted. Sixteen studies containing 4,113 MS cases and 3,637 healthy controls indicated a weak positive association between ADIPOQ +45 T>G and MS in the dominant genetic model (OR = 1.30, 95% CI
