Meta-Analysis of Vitamin D Receptor Gene Polymorphisms in Childhood Asthma.

ABSTRACT: We conducted the systematic review to investigate the potential relationship between the vitamin polymorphisms of D receptor (VDR) gene and childhood asthma. Relevant studies researching on VDR polymorphisms and asthma susceptibility were searched throughout Embase, PubMed, China Science and technology journal database (CQVIP), etc. till 12 April, 2021. We calculated the pooled odds ratios (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) using RevMan 5.3 software and Stata 11.0. FokI (rs2228570) could significantly affect childhood asthma risk across co dominant model (Ff vs. FF: OR (95%CI) = 0.82 (0.65, 1.02), P = 0.071) and dominant model (ff+Ff vs. FF: OR (95%CI) = 0.77 (0.63, 0.95), P = 0.016), especially among Caucasians in additive model (f vs. F: OR (95%CI) = 0.63 (0.43, 0.92
