A disintegrin and metalloprotease 33 (ADAM33) gene polymorphisms and the risk of asthma: a meta-analysis
S Liang, X Wei, C Gong, J Wei, Z Chen, J Deng - Human immunology, 2013 - Elsevier
Polymorphisms in the ADAM33 gene have been associated with asthma, but the data are
controversial. Therefore, we reviewed the related studies and quantitatively summarized the
associations between ADAM33 polymorphisms and asthma risk using meta-analysis. A
dominant model (AA+ Aa vs. aa), recessive model (AA vs. Aa+ aa), additive model (AA vs.
aa) and allelic model (A vs. a) were used to estimate the association between ADAM33
polymorphism and asthma risk. A total of 29 case–control studies referring to 14 SNPs were …
