【 摘 要 】

References(57)Cited-By(2)Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase plays an important role in folate metabolism.Individuals who are type 2 diabetes mellitus have greatest risk for the development of vascular complications.The results of studies which assessed the association between MTHFR C677T polymorphism and T2DM with vascular complications were inconsistent in the Chinese Han population.The purpose of this meta-analysis was to assess the associations between MTHFR C677T polymorphism and T2DM with vascular complications in the Chinese Han population.We collected all relevant articles on MTHFR C677T polymorphisms and T2DM with vascular complications in the Chinese Han population in multiple electronic databases which were searched to December 2013.Fixed-effects and random-effects meta-analyses were performed to assess the odds ratios (ORs).Stratified Analysis, sensitivity Analysis and publication bias were examined.A total of 1984 diabetic patients with vascular complications and 1703 single diabetic patients were found in meta-analysis.There was a significant association between MTHFR C677T polymorphisms and T2DM with vascular complications under recessive genetic model, dominant genetic model, homozygous genetic model, heterozygous genetic model and allele comparison.Sensitivity analysis indicated that the overall result was dependable.Our meta-analysis suggests the MTHFR C677T polymorphisms is associated with T2DM with vascular complications in the Chinese Han population.
