eNOS gene G10T polymorphism in 1290 children with sporadic congenital heart disease / 临床儿科杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) gene G10T polymorphism and the susceptibility of sporadic congenital heart disease (CHD).MethodsThe genotype oneNOS G10T locus was detected and compared in 1323 children with sporadic CHD and 1323 non-CHD children.ResultsCompared with the CC genotype, the AA genotype signiifcantly increased the risk of CHD (adjustedOR=1.42, 95%CI=1.01-2.04). Compared with the CC/AC geno-type, the AA genotype signiifcantly increased the risk of CHD (adjustedOR=1.39, 95%CI=1.08-1.92). Based on stratiifed analy-sis, the AA genotype was associated with the susceptibility of perimembranous ventricular septal defects (adjustedOR=1.56, 95%CI=1.17-2.47).ConclusionsIn Chinese population, theeNOS G10T polymorphism may increase the susceptibility of sporadic CHD.
