ABSTRACT

Background:

Several studies have examined associations between TNF-α polymorphisms and asthma risk, but the results have been conflicting.

Methods:

A search was performed of the PubMed, EMBASE, and Wanfang databases. Data were extracted and pooled ORs with 95% CIs were calculated.

Results:

Fifty-four studies were included. A significant association between the TNFA -308A/G polymorphism and asthma susceptibility was observed for AA+AG vs GG (OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.23-1.58; P<.001). This polymorphism was also significantly associated with asthma risk in whites (OR, 1.47; 95% CI, 1.25-1.73; P<.001), atopic asthma risk (OR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.16-1.65; P<.001), pediatric asthma risk (OR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.23-1.79; P<.001), and adult asthma risk (OR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.21-1.52; P<.001). There was also a significant association between the TNFA -857C/T polymorphism and asthma risk in the recessive model (OR, 1.25; 95% CI, 1.10-1.43; P<.001). In the subgroup analyses, asthma risk was significantly increased in Asians (OR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.07-1.41; P=.004) and atopic individuals (OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.13-1.57; P<.001). No significant association was found for the TNFA -238A/G polymorphism. There were insufficient data to evaluate the associations between TNFA -1031T/C and -863C/A polymorphisms and asthma risk.

Conclusions:

This meta-analysis suggests that TNFA -308A/G and -857C/T polymorphisms are risk factors for asthma (AU)
RESUMEN
Antecedentes Son varios los estudios que han examinado las asociaciones existentes entre diferentes polimorfismos del factor de necrosis tumoral alfa (TNF-α) con el riesgo de padecer asma. Sin embargo, los resultados han sido contradictorios.

Métodos:

Se utilizaron diversas bases de datos para realizar las búsquedas, incluyendo PubMed, EMBASE y Wanfang. Se calcularon los odd ratios combinados (OR) con intervalos de confianza del 95% (IC).

Resultados:

Se incluyeron cincuenta y cuatro estudios. Se encontró una asociación significativa entre el polimorfismo TNFA-308A/G y la susceptibilidad de asma para AA+AG vs GG (OR = 1,39, IC del 95% 1,23-1,58, P <0,00001). Este polimorfismo también se asoció significativamente con el riesgo de asma en los pacientes caucásicos (OR = 1,47, IC del 95% 1,25 a 1,73, P <0,00001), el riesgo de asma atópica (OR = 1,38, IC del 95% 1,16 a 1,65, P = 0,0003), el riesgo de asma infantil (OR = 1,48, IC del 95% 1,23 a 1,79, P <0,0001), y el riesgo de asma en adultos (OR = 1,35, IC del 95% 1,21 a 1,52, P <0,00001), respectivamente. También hubo una asociación significativa entre el polimorfismo TNFA-857C/T y el riesgo de asma en el modelo recesivo (OR = 1,25, IC del 95% 1,10 a 1,43, P = 0,0009). En los análisis de subgrupos, el riesgo de asma fue significativamente mayor en los asiáticos (OR = 1,23, IC del 95% 1,07 a 1,41, P = 0,004) y en los individuos atópicos (OR = 1,33, IC del 95% 1,13 a 1,57, P = 0,0006). No se encontró asociación significativa para el polimorfismo TNFA-238A/G. No hubo datos suficientes para evaluar asociaciones entre los polimorfismos TNFA-1031T/C y TNFA- 863C/A y el riesgo de asma.

Conclusiones:

Este meta-análisis sugiere que los polimorfismos TNFA-308A/G y TNFA-857C/T son factores de riesgo para el asma (AU)
