    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Several studies have investigated the correlation between phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs918592 and the risk of ischemic stroke (IS) in Chinese populations. But the results were inconsistent and inconclusive. Therefore, to resolve this conflict, we conducted a meta-analysis to further elucidate their relationship in Chinese populations. METHODS: Studies focused on SNP rs918592 and IS risk were electronic searched in the databases of PubMed, Embase, ISI Web of Science, Weipu, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical (CBM) and Wanfang. The association between SNP rs918592 and IS risk was expressed by odds ratio (OR) with its confidence interval (CI). Begg's and Egger's linear regression tests were used to assess publication bias. The meta-analysis was performed with STATA 11.0 statistical software. Two online prediction websites (HaploReg and RegulomeDB) were adopted to explore the functions of SNP rs918592. RESULTS: The meta-analysis ultimately included 10 studies involving 2,348 cases and 2,289 controls. The results showed that there was a significant correlation between SNP rs918592 and IS risk in Chinese individuals. The G allele had reduced risk of developing IS compared to the A allele (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.74-0.95, P = 0.005). HaploReg and RegulomeDB analyses suggested that SNP rs918592 and its strongly linked SNPs (e.g. rs34168777) might have regulatory functions. CONCLUSION: This study shows that SNP rs918592 in PDE4D may be a contributor of IS risk in Chinese populations. It offers a good answer for the association of PDE4D SNP rs918592 with IS risk in Chinese populations for the first time.
