A functional polymorphism rs10830963 in melatonin receptor 1B associated with the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: The melatonin receptor 1B (MTNR1B) polymorphism rs10830963 C>G has been reported to be associated with the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) with inconsistent results. To clarify the effect of the polymorphism on the risk of GDM, a meta-analysis therefore was performed. Pooled OR with its corresponding 95%CI was used to estimate the strength of the association. Totally 14 eligible studies with a number of 5033 GDM patients and 5614 controls were included in this meta-analysis. Results indicated that the variant G allele was significantly associated with an increased GDM risk (CG vs. CC: OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.11-1.40, P < 0.001; GG vs. CC: OR = 1.78, 95% CI = 1.45-2.19, P < 0.001; G vs. C: OR = 1.33, 95% CI = 1.21-1.47, P < 0.001). In the stratified analysis by ethnicity, similar
