摘要

ProblemThe association between IL-10 gene promoter polymorphisms and the risk of recurrent miscarriages (RM) remains controversial. The present meta-analysis was performed to derive a precise estimate of the relationship. Method of studyWe searched the PubMed and EMBASE for studies related to the association between the IL-10 gene polymorphism and the risk of RM. Summary odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was estimated to assess the associations. ResultsThirteen studies, including 2047 RM cases and 2055 control samples, were identified. The results showed a significant association between rs1800896, rs1800871 and RM risk (for rs1800896: GA+GG vs AA: OR=1.20, 95% CI=1.04-1.39, P=.02; for rs1800871: CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.64, 95% CI=1.13-2.36, P=.009). No evidence of association was noted between rs1800872 haplotype and RM risk. ConclusionIL-10 gene promoter polymorphisms, rs1800896 and rs1800871, play a potential role in increasing the risk of RM.
