The effect of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism on risk of diabetic nephropathy (DN) is still conflicting. The present meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the overall risk of this polymorphism associated with DN in different groups.
A predefined search was performed on 14,108 DN cases and 12,472 controls from 63 published studies by searching electronic databases and reference lists of relevant articles.
In this meta-analysis, we found a significant association between the ACE I/D polymorphism and the risk of DN for all genetic models (ID versus II: odds ratio [OR] = 1.12, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.24; DD versus II: OR = 1.27, 95% CI 1.13-1.44; allele contrast: OR = 1.15, 95% CI 1.08-1.23; dominant model: OR = 1.18, 95% CI 1.07-1.31; and recessive model: OR = 1.18, 95% CI 1.08-1.30, respectively). In stratified analysis by ethnicity and DM type, we further found that the Asian group with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) showed a significant association for all genetic models (ID versus II: OR = 1.25, 95% CI 1.07-1.47; DD versus II: OR = 1.57, 95% CI 1.24-1.98; allele contrast: OR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.15-1.46; dominant model: OR = 1.37, 95% CI 1.10-1.69; and recessive model: OR = 1.34, 95% CI 1.15-1.56, respectively).
Our study suggested that the ACE I/D polymorphism may contribute to DN development, especially in the Asian group with T2DM.
血管紧张素转换酶(ACE)插入/缺失(I/D)多态性对糖尿病肾病(DN)风险的影响仍存在争议。本荟萃分析旨在评估该多态性与不同人群中 DN 相关的总体风险。
通过检索电子数据库和相关文章的参考文献列表,对 63 项已发表研究中的 14108 例 DN 病例和 12472 例对照进行了预先设定的搜索。
在这项荟萃分析中,我们发现 ACE I/D 多态性与 DN 的风险之间存在显著关联,所有遗传模型均如此(ID 与 II:比值比[OR] = 1.12,95%置信区间[CI] 1.02-1.24;DD 与 II:OR = 1.27,95% CI 1.13-1.44;等位基因对比:OR = 1.15,95% CI 1.08-1.23;显性模型:OR = 1.18,95% CI 1.07-1.31;隐性模型:OR = 1.18,95% CI 1.08-1.30)。按种族和 DM 类型进行分层分析后,我们还发现,2 型糖尿病(T2DM)的亚洲人群所有遗传模型均显示出显著关联(ID 与 II:OR = 1.25,95% CI 1.07-1.47;DD 与 II:OR = 1.57,95% CI 1.24-1.98;等位基因对比:OR = 1.30,95% CI 1.15-1.46;显性模型:OR = 1.37,95% CI 1.10-1.69;隐性模型:OR = 1.34,95% CI 1.15-1.56)。
我们的研究表明,ACE I/D 多态性可能导致 DN 的发生,尤其是在亚洲 T2DM 人群中。
