Comprehensive analysis of interleukin-8 gene polymorphisms and periodontitis susceptibility.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Associations between interleukin-8 (IL-8) gene polymorphisms and periodontitis susceptibility have been investigated in many published studies, but the conclusions are still inconsistent. Therefore, we performed this systematic review and meta-analysis to review which polymorphisms have been researched and to obtain a precise result of the same polymorphism from different studies.

Results

Finally 10 publications involving 1938 patients and 1569 controls were yielded, including 12 polymorphisms. Six studies investigated rs4073 polymorphism; two focused on rs2227306 and rs2227307; two referred to rs2227532 and T-738A; one detected rs2230054, rs1126579 and rs1126580; one inspected A2767T, T11722T2 and C1633T, and one for rs2234671 polymorphism. Of them, IL-8 C1633T a
