Abstract: PURPOSE: To systematically review the association between interleukin-10 (IL-10) -1082G/A gene polymorphism and susceptibility of recurrent oral ulcer (ROU) by meta analysis. METHODS: Databases of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI, CBM, WanFang, and VIP were electronically searched to collect studies published up to August 2017 about the association between IL-10-1082G/A gene polymorphism and ROU susceptibility. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, two reviewers independently screened literature and extracted data, the methodological quality assessment and heterogeneity test of included studies were performed. Meta analysis was performed with RevMan5.3 software. RESULTS: A total of 6 case-control studies were included, which involved 668 ROU patients in case group and 769 healthy individuals in control group. In the general population, the results of meta analysis showed that, under 3 genetic models including allele model (G vs A), recessive model (GG+GA vs AA) and heterozygous model (GA vs AA), there was significant association between IL-10-1082G/A gene polymorphism and ROU susceptibility (G vs A: OR=1.31, 95%CI 1.03 to 1.66, P=0.03; GG+GA vs AA: OR=1.45, 95%CI 1.16 to 1.82, P=0.001; GA vs AA: OR= 1.33, 95%CI 1.04 to 1.70, P=0.02). In the Asian population, meta analysis result was consistent with the general population. CONCLUSIONS: IL-10-1082G/A gene polymorphism is associated with ROU susceptibility. Individuals with G allele and GA genotype have a higher risk of ROU. Future more well-designed, large sample and multicenter studies are greatly needed to verify our conclusion.
