Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the interleukins (IL) gene may affect the risk of acute pancreatitis. Many epidemiological studies have reported an association between the IL gene and acute pancreatitis risk, but the results remain inconsistent. Given the controversial available data, we carried out a meta-analysis to systematically evaluate and clarify the association between IL gene polymorphisms and AP. A systematic search of studies for this association was obtained from the PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases until June 1, 2017. We also searched the references of the included studies to identify additional studies. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to pool the effect size. Stata12.0 was used for whole statistical analysis. Fifteen studies that contained 3371 AP cases and 3506 controls were included in final combination. Overall, a significant association was found between the IL-8-251 T/A (rs4073) polymorphism, the IL-10-1082 A/G (rs1800896) polymorphism and the AP risk in four genetic models (homozygote model, recessive model, dominant model, allele model). Meanwhile, individuals with IL-1β+3954 C/T (rs1143634, (homozygote model, recessive model)), IL-1β -511 C/T (rs16944, (dominant model)) and IL-6-634C/G (rs1800796, (allele model)) polymorphism were associated with an increased risk of AP. No evidence of an association was found between IL and 10-592 C/A (rs1800872) and IL-10-819 C/T (rs1800871) polymorphism and AP risk.

Comprehensive international bibliographic biomedical database that enables users to track and retrieve precise information on drugs and diseases from pre-clinical studies to searches on critical toxicological information. It contains bibliographic records with citations, abstracts and indexing derived from biomedical articles in peer reviewed journals, and is especially strong in its coverage of drug and pharmaceutical research. Embase can help with everything from clinical trials research to pharmacovigilance and is updated online daily and weekly. Its broad biomedical scope covers the following areas: * Drug therapy and research, including pharmaceutics, pharmacology and toxicology * Clinical and experimental (human) medicine * Basic biological science relevant to human medicine * Biotechnology and biomedical engineering, including medical devices * Health policy and management, including pharmacoeconomics * Public, occupational and environmental health, including pollution control * Veterinary science, dentistry, and nursing The Embase Application Programming Interface supports export, RSS feeds, and integration services, making it possible to share data with a wide range of systems.
View all literature mentionsA controlled vocabulary thesaurus that consists of sets of terms naming descriptors in a hierarchical structure that permits searching at various levels of specificity. MeSH, in machine-readable form, is provided at no charge via electronic means. MeSH descriptors are arranged in both an alphabetic and a hierarchical structure. At the most general level of the hierarchical structure are very broad headings such as Anatomy or Mental Disorders. More specific headings are found at more narrow levels of the twelve-level hierarchy, such as Ankle and Conduct Disorder. There are 27,149 descriptors in 2014 MeSH. There are also over 218,000 entry terms that assist in finding the most appropriate MeSH Heading, for example, Vitamin C is an entry term to Ascorbic Acid. In addition to these headings, there are more than 219,000 headings called Supplementary Concept Records (formerly Supplementary Chemical Records) within a separate thesaurus. The MeSH thesaurus is used by NLM for indexing articles from 5,400 of the world''''s leading biomedical journals for the MEDLINE/PubMED database. It is also used for the NLM-produced database that includes cataloging of books, documents, and audiovisuals acquired by the Library. Each bibliographic reference is associated with a set of MeSH terms that describe the content of the item. Similarly, search queries use MeSH vocabulary to find items on a desired topic.
View all literature mentionsGoogle Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research. Features of Google Scholar * Search diverse sources from one convenient place * Find articles, theses, books, abstracts or court opinions * Locate the complete document through your library or on the web * Learn about key scholarly literature in any area of research How are documents ranked? Google Scholar aims to rank documents the way researchers do, weighing the full text of each document, where it was published, who it was written by, as well as how often and how recently it has been cited in other scholarly literature. * Publishers - Include your publications in Google Scholar * Librarians - Help patrons discover your library''s resources
