    Abstract:

    Aim To evaluate the association of apolipoprotein B (ApoB) EcoRI polymorphisms with coronary heart disease (CHD) in Chinese population by using a meta-analysis. Methods Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) test was used to check genetic equilibrium among genotypes for the selected articles. A fixed or random effect model was selected based on a heterogeneity test. Publication bias was quantified and tested with Begg’s rank correlation method and/or Egger’s linear regression. This meta-analysis was conducted by using Stata 12.0 software. Results Ten reports that met the inclusion criteria were utilized for this meta-analysis. The results of meta-analysis indicated that the pooled OR(95%CI)of E+ vs E-was 1.29 (1.04~1.60), and P<0.05, the pooled OR(95%CI)of E+E+ vs E+E- + E-E- was 1.28 (1.02~1.61), and P<0.05. Conclusion In Chinese population, ApoB XbaI locus is an important susceptibility site for CHD.
