Numbers of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified as risk factors for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in the Chinese population; however, published articles drew incompatible or even contradictory results.
The aim of this study was to investigate the susceptible SNPs and risk of OSAS in the Chinese population.
We conducted a meta-analysis of seven polymorphisms and risk of OSAS based on 21 case-control studies.
The results of our study showed that tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) -308 G/A (OR = 3.70, 95 % CI = 1.39-9.83), gene-linked polymorphic region (LPR) (OR = 0.57, 95 % CI = 0.41-0.79), and variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) of the 5-hydroxytryptamine transporter gene (5-HTT) (OR = 3.44, 95 % CI = 1.49-7.95) polymorphisms were associated with OSAS risk in the Chinese population, while there was no significant association between 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HTR2A) 102C/T, 5-HTR2A A1438G, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) insertion (I)/deletion (D), or leptin receptor (LEPR)-Gln 223Arg polymorphism and risk of OSAS in the Chinese population.
Our study demonstrated that TNF-α 308 G/A, 5-HTT LPR, and 5-HTT-VNTR polymorphisms were associated with OSAS risk, whereas little association was observed between 5-HTR2A 102C/T, 5-HTR2A A1438G, ACE I/D, or LEPR-Gln 223Arg polymorphism and risk of OSAS in the Chinese population.
在中国人群中，单核苷酸多态性（SNP）的数量被确定为阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征（OSAS）的风险因素；然而，已发表的文章得出了不一致甚至相互矛盾的结果。
本研究旨在调查中国人群中OSAS的易感SNP和风险。
我们基于21项病例对照研究对7种多态性与OSAS风险进行了荟萃分析。
我们的研究结果表明，肿瘤坏死因子-α（TNF-α）-308 G/A（比值比[OR]=3.70，95%可信区间[CI]=1.39-9.83）、基因连锁多态性区域（LPR）（OR=0.57，95%CI=0.41-0.79）以及5-羟色胺转运体基因（5-HTT）的可变数目串联重复序列（VNTR）（OR=3.44，95%CI=1.49-7.95）多态性与中国人群的OSAS风险相关，而5-羟色胺2A受体（5-HTR2A）102C/T、5-HTR2A A1438G、血管紧张素转换酶（ACE）插入（I）/缺失（D）或瘦素受体（LEPR）-Gln 223Arg多态性与中国人群的OSAS风险之间无显著关联。
我们的研究表明，TNF-α 308 G/A、5-HTT LPR和5-HTT-VNTR多态性与OSAS风险相关，而在中国人群中，5-HTR2A 102C/T、5-HTR2A A1438G、ACE I/D或LEPR-Gln 223Arg多态性与OSAS风险之间几乎没有关联。
