Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) -173G/C (rs755622), mannose-binding lectin (MBL2) exon 1 codon 54 (rs1800450) gene polymorphisms and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) susceptibility in ethnically different populations. A meta-analysis was conducted (allelic contrast, the additive model, the dominant model and the recessive model) on the MIF-173G/C...
