The arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP) gene SG13S114 polymorphism and ischemic stroke in Chinese population: a meta-analysis.

| Abstract |
Previous studies have indicated that the arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP) gene SG13S114 polymorphism is associated with risk of ischemic stroke (IS), but the results remain inconclusive even in Chinese population. A meta-analysis of 10 case-control studies was conducted on the relationship between ALOX5AP SG13S114 polymorphism and susceptibility to IS in Chinese population published domestically and abroad from September 2007 to December 2012. Data were extracted by two authors and pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Meta-analysis results showed that the significant association between SG13S114 variant and IS was found under the allelic (OR=0.87, 95% CI: 0.80-0.96, P=0.004), dominant (OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.62-0.92, P=0.005), and recessive (OR=0.89, 95% CI: 0.82-0.97, P=0.005) genetic models in Chinese population. In subgroup meta-analysis, SG13S114 variant and atherothrombotic stroke, rather than lacunar stroke, showed the significant association under the allelic (OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.80-0.92, P<0.0001), dominant (OR=0.72, 95% CI: 0.57-0.91, P=0.006), and recessive (OR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.78-0.95, P=0.002) models. ALOX5AP SG13S114 polymorphism is associated with susceptibility to IS in Chinese population.
