Association between the -174 G/C polymorphism of the interleukin-6 gene and myocardial infarction risk: a meta-analysis

J. Zhou, Feng, J., Li, X., Zhou, J., Feng, J., and Li, X., Association between the -174 G/C polymorphism of the interleukin-6 gene and myocardial infarction risk: a meta-analysis, vol. 15, p. -, 2016.

Numerous studies have evaluated the association between the -174 G/C polymorphism in the interleukin-6 gene (IL6) and myocardial infarction (MI) risk. However, the results from the published studies are inconclusive. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine whether the IL6 -174 G/C polymorphism is associated with MI risk. A meta-analysis based on nine case-control studies was performed to address this issue.
