BACKGROUND: To investigate a possible effect of a gene mutation on rheumatoid arthritis (RA), we performed genotyping, in a hospital-based, case-control study in a Chinese cohort, relating the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of microRNA (miRNA)-146a (rs2910164) to RA and undertook a meta-analysis using the available literature. METHODS: Six hundred and fifteen RA patients and 839 controls were enrolled in...
