  • Association between 14 bp Insertion/Deletion Polymorphism of HLA-G Gene and Preeclampsia: A Meta-Analysis

    Objective To systematically review the association between 14 bp insertion/ deletion polymorphism of HLA-G gene and preeclampsia (PE). Methods We electronically searched in the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data, and VIP to collect all the case-control trials on the association between 14 bp insertion/ deletion polymorphism of HLA-G gene and PE. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and assessed the quality of the included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results Totally 10 studies were recruited. The results of meta-analysis showed that, the preeclampsia group was higher than the control group in the frequencies of HLA-G +14 bp haplotype in the fetus and fathers and the frequencies of HLA-G +14 bp/+14 bp genotype in fathers, but its frequencies of fetal HLA-G −14 bp haplotype was significantly lower. Their pooled OR and 95%CI were 1.42 (1.10 to 1.84), 1.54 (1.25 to 1.90), 2.00 (1.19 to 3.38), and 0.67 (0.54 to 0.82). Compared with the control group, in the preeclampsia group the frequencies of HLA-G +14 bp/+14 bp genotype in fetus were higher, while the frequencies of HLA-G −14 bp/−14 bp genotype were lower (OR=1.75, 95%CI 1.11 to 2.77; OR= 0.57, 95%CI 0.41 to 0.81). In the preeclampsia group, the frequencies of mother (+14 bp/−14 bp)/ fetal (+14 bp/+14 bp) were higher than the control group (OR= 3.77, 95%CI 1.40 to 10.11), while those of mother (−14 bp/−14 bp)/ fetal (−14 bp/−14 bp) and those of father (−14 bp/−14 bp)/fetal (−14 bp/−14 bp) were lower (OR=0.52, 95%IC 0.31 to 0.85; OR=0.33, 95%CI 0.15 to 0.75). Conclusion Paternal and fetal 14 bp insertion/ deletion polymorphism of HLA-G gene might be associated with preeclampsia. And maternal-fetal genotype compatibility analysis might provide new clues for the pathogenesis research and clinical diagnosis of preeclampsia.

  • Association between 936C/T Polymorphism in VEGF Gene and Preeclampsia Risk: A Meta-Analysis

    ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the association between 936C/T polymorphism in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene and the risk of preeclampsia (PE). MethodsSuch databases as PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 11, 2014), CBM, CNKI, VIP, and WanFang Data were searched up to November 2014, to collect case-control studies of the association between 936C/T polymorphism in VEGF gene and the risk of PE. Two reveiwers independently screened studies according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. And then, meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.3 software. ResultsA total of nine case-control studies involving 904 PE patients and 1 113 controls were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, significant association was found between VEGF gene 936C/T polymorphism and the risk of PE in the total analysis (T vs. C:OR=1.61, 95%CI 1.17 to 2.22, P=0.003; TT vs. CC:OR=2.65, 95%CI 1.37 to 5.11, P=0.004; CT vs. CC:OR=1.55, 95%CI 1.09 to 2.22, P=0.02; TT+CT vs. CC:OR=1.68, 95%CI 1.15 to 2.45, P=0.007; TT vs. CT+CC:OR=2.19, 95%CI 1.31 to 3.68, P=0.003). In the subgroup analysis, significant association of the polymorphism was found in Asians but not in Caucasians. ConclusionVEGF gene 936C/T polymorphism may be associated with PE risk in Asians. Due to limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the conclusion should be assessed in further studies.

  • The level and clinical significance of serum soluble endoglin and soluble Fms-like tyrosine kinase in patients with preeclampsia

    Objective To explore the levels and the clinical significance of serum soluble Endoglin (sEng) and soluble Fms-like tyrosine kinase (sFlt-1) in patients with preeclampsia (PE). Methods Ninety-six patients with PE were included from June 2009 to June 2014. The patients were divided into mild PE group (n=54) and severe PE group (n=42), while 40 healthy pregnant women were in the control group. The general situation and laboratory testing were recorded and the serum levels of sEng and sFlt-1 were detected. All patients were routinely followed up with the recording of delivery and neonatal situation. Results The sEng and sFlt-1 levels were highest in the severe PE group [(7345.02±772.73) and (866.08±203.24) ng/L], which was followed by mild PE [(5 547.08±564.06) and (603.99±138.37) ng/L] and control group [(1 840.93±300.71) and (252.68±83.03) ng/L] (P<0.01). Levels of sEng were significantly correlated with sFlt-1 in both mild and severe PE groups. There were significantly correlations between sEng and sFlt-1 in mild or severe PE group respectively. The level of sEng and sFlt-1 was considerably positively correlated with mean arterial pressure, 24-hour urinary protein, serum creatinine, fibrinogen, umbilical artery shrink/diastole and resistance index value, but negatively correlated with prothrombin time, birth weight and the placenta weight (P<0.05). PE patients with sEng of <5 000 ng/L and sFlt-1 levels of <700 ng/L had the risk of severe complications of 6.8% and 14.0%; while patients with sEng of ≥5 000 ng/L and sFlt-1 of ≥700 ng/L had the ratio fo 40.4% and 37.0% respectively (P<0.01). Conclusion Serum levels of sEng and sFlt-1 in PE patients indicate that the severity of disease and outcomes of pregnancy.

  • Calcium supplement in pregnancy for prevention of preeclampsia: a meta-analysis

    Objectives To investigate calcium supplement in pregnancy for prevention of preeclampsia and relevant outcomes. Methods The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, WanFang Data, VIP and CNKI databases were searched online to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of calcium supplement in pregnancy for prevention of preeclampsia and relevant outcomes from inception to July 2018. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 33 RCTs involving 29 234 subjects were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with control group, the calcium supplement group was associated with lower preeclampsia (RR=0.48, 95%CI 0.38 to 0.62, P<0.000 01) and gestational hypertension (RR=0.65, 95%CI 0.55 to 0.77,P<0.000 01) incidence. The incidence of premature delivery, intrauterine growth retardation and severe preeclampsia in calcium supplement group was lower than that in placebo group, and the neonatal weight in calcium was higher than that in placebo group. However, there was no significant difference in the pregnancy cycle between the two groups. Conclusions Current evidence shows that calcium supplement is associated with lower risk of preeclampsia and gestational hypertension. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
