ABSTRACT: Background
Inconsistent conclusions have been reported for the genetic relationship between CYP4F2 (Cytochrome P450 Family 4 Subfamily F Member 2) polymorphisms and the susceptibility to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.Methods
We performed a meta-analysis to assess the potential role of rs1558139 C/T and rs2108622 G/A polymorphisms of CYP4F2 in the risks of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The retrieval of four databases, including PubMed, Web of Science (WOS), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and WANFANG DATA, was conducted. Mantel-Haenszel statistics for association test, Cochran's Q statistic, sensitivity analysis for heterogeneity assessment, and Begg's/Egger's tests for publication bias evaluation were performed under allele, homoz
