The association between single nucleotide polymorphism and disease is a typical representation of genetic association studies. Compared with the traditional dichotomous data, single nucleotide polymorphism data has its own characteristics, and 5 genetic models are commonly performed in meta-analysis. In this paper, we show how to use the " meta” package in R software to conduct meta-analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism research through examples.
