A PRISMA-compliant meta-analysis of MDM4 genetic variants and cancer susceptibility

Abstract: Molecular epidemiological research suggests that mouse double minute 4 (MDM4) polymorphisms may be associated with cancer susceptibility, but results remain controversial. To derive a more precise evaluation, we performed a PRISMA compliant meta-analysis focused on five single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs11801299, rs1380576, rs10900598, rs1563828, and rs4245739) of MDM4. Overall, 23 studies involving 22,218 cases and 55,033 controls were analyzed. The results showed that rs4245739 was significantly associated … Show more

“…MDM4 rs4245739 was intensively studied in different types of cancer [ 18 , 22 , 35 , 36 , 43 , 44 , 45 ]. Part of them [ 35 , 36 ] found no association of this variant with cancer susceptibility, while others [ 22 , 43 , 44 , 45 ] found an association with reduced risk of cancer, mainly of breast cancer but not only. The published results are contradictory, depending on the cancer type.…”

“…Because of the limited numbers of included studies, we only assessed the publication bias of those investigating the IL-8 rs4073 polymorphism. Secondly, systematic review and meta-analysis is an observational study which was restricted by the quality of primary studies [ 6 , 16 , 33 35 ]. Although we had conducted a more comprehensive search, our study could not escape from this limitation.…”

“…Obviously, many other polymorphisms of IL-8 gene has not been explored, so we performed this analysis for further assessing the relationship between all IL-8 gene polymorphisms and periodontitis; additionally, we also reviewed which polymorphisms have been investigated. The present study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement [ 15 16 ].…”

“…We identified potential records from six databases (PubMed, WOS, EMBASE, CNKI, WANFANG, and Scopus). We performed a PRISMA (preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses [ 61 ])-compliant database search and study selection, and the relevant meta-analysis papers were referred [ 62 - 64 ]. Two authors (Yixin Zhang, Xiaoteng Cui) independently removed duplicate studies and assessed record eligibilities according to our exclusion/inclusion criteria.…”
