Association between the FCGR2A gene H131R polymorphism and risk of Kawasaki disease: a meta-analysis

L. Lin, Wang, S. Y., Yang, S. B., and Xiao, F. C., Association between the FCGR2A gene H131R polymorphism and risk of Kawasaki disease: a meta-analysis, vol. 14, pp. 6256-6264, 2015.

Several previous studies have investigated whether the FCGR2A gene H131R polymorphism confers an increased risk of Kawasaki disease (KD), but conflicting results have been reported. To further explore the association of this polymorphism with KD susceptibility, we performed an extensive search of relevant studies and conducted a meta-analysis to obtain a more precise estimate of risk. Systematic searches of the electronic databases Embase, PubMed, and Google Scholar were performed to identify relevant studies.
