Associations between polymorphisms of the ADIPOQ gene and hypertension risk: a systematic and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: ADIPOQ gene polymorphisms have been indicated to be associated with hypertension; however, published studies have reported inconsistent results. Eligible studies were retrieved by searching the PubMed, Embase and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases. The case group consisted of patients with hypertension, and the control group consisted of subjects with normal blood pressure. Based on eleven published articles, involving 4837 cases and 5618 controls, the pooled results from rs2241766 polymorphism showed increased risk in the allelic model (G VS T: OR = 1.16, 95%CI = 1.06-1.27), recessive model (GG VS GT + TT: OR = 1.34, 95%CI = 1.10-1.63), dominant model (GG + GT VS TT: OR = 1.15, 95%CI = 1.02-1.30) and homozygote model (GG VS TT: OR = 1.38, 95%CI = 1.21-1.69). In addition, rs
