An association between -866G/A polymorphism in the promoter of UCP2 and obesity: a meta-analysis.

Gene - 1 Feb 2013

Liu Lingling, Zhao Xinxin, Kang Shan, Zhang Dongfeng

Abstract excerpt

-866G/A polymorphism in the promoter of UCP2 gene has been reported to be associated with obesity, but the results remain inconclusive. To assess the relation of UCP2 -866G/A polymorphism and obesity susceptibility, a meta-analysis was performed. PubMed, ISI, Wanfang database, VIP and CBM were searched to identify relevant studies up to July 31, 2012. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were...
