Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to determine whether the interleukin-10 (IL-10) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). A meta-analysis was conducted on the associations between the IL-10 -1082 G/A, -592 C/A, -892 C/T and IL-10.R polymorphisms and RA using; (1) allele contrast, (2) the recessive model, (3) the dominant model, and (4) the additive model. A total of 16 studies (19 comparisons)...
