Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) Polymorphism and the Risk of Alcoholic Liver Cirrhosis among East Asians: A Meta-Analysis.

Yonsei medical journal - 1 Jul 2016

He Lei, Deng Tao, Luo Hesheng

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) gene has been implicated in the development of alcoholic liver cirrhosis (ALC) in East Asians. However, the results are inconsistent. In this study, a meta-analysis was performed to assess the associations between the ALDH2 polymorphism and the risk of ALC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Relevant studies were retrieved by searching PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang and...
