- W2315490633 abstract "The human patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing-3 (PNPLA3) gene rs738409 C>G polymorphism is associated with several types of liver disease. The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the risk of cirrhosis on the basis of rs738409 allele frequency and genotype. Medline, the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Google Scholar were searched for prospective and retrospective studies assessing the effect of the rs738409 polymorphism on liver cirrhosis. Seven studies, involving 2,023 patients with cirrhosis, were included. The G allele was associated with a significantly increased risk of cirrhosis versus the C allele [pooled odds ratio (OR) = 1.86, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.64–2.12, Z = 9.55, P < 0.001]. Both the GC and GG genotypes were associated with a significantly increased risk of cirrhosis versus the CC genotype (GC vs. CC: pooled OR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.51–1.98, Z = 7.86, P < 0.001; GG vs. CC: pooled OR = 3.41, 95% CI = 2.77–4.18, Z = 11.65, P < 0.001). There was no evidence of publication bias. Our findings suggest that patients at risk for liver cirrhosis may benefit from PNPLA3 genotyping and thus more intensive monitoring if the rs738409 C>G polymorphism is identified.

Liver cirrhosis is the 12th leading cause of death in the United States, with about half of these deaths being associated with alcohol (1National Institutes of Health. Surveillance report #93: liver cirrhosis mortality in the United States, 1970–2009. Accessed September 10, 2013, at http://pubs.niaaa.nih.gov/publications/Surveillance93/Cirr09.htm.Google Scholar). The precise worldwide incidence of liver cirrhosis is unknown; however, epidemiological data from Europe suggest that there are 15 to 133 cases per 100,000 population per year (2Blachier M. Leleu H. Peck-Radosavljevic M. Valla D.C. Roudot-Thoraval F. The burden of liver disease in Europe: a review of available epidemiological data.J. Hepatol. 2013; 58: 593-608Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (925) Google Scholar). Although alcohol use increases the risk of cirrhosis, there appear to be other factors that influence disease progression as only 10–20% of heavy drinkers develop cirrhosis (3Teli M.R. Day C.P. Burt A.D. Bennett M.K. James O.F. Determinants of progression to cirrhosis or fibrosis in pure alcoholic fatty liver.Lancet. 1995; 346: 987-990Abstract PubMed Scopus (409) Google Scholar). Other factors purported to affect the development of cirrhosis include gender, insulin resistance, steatosis, environmental factors, body mass index, chronic viral infection, and genetics (4Becker U.

Genet. 2008; 83: 520-528Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (330) Google Scholar). One such genetic factor is the patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing-3 (PNPLA3) gene, also known as adiponutrin. Although the precise physiological role of PNPLA3 in the liver is currently unclear (13Dongiovanni P. Donati B. Fares R. Lombardi R. Mancina R.M. Romeo S. Valenti L. PNPLA3 I148M polymorphism and progressive liver disease.World J. Gastroenterol. 2013; 19: 6969-6978Crossref PubMed Scopus (171) Google Scholar), the PNPLA3 gene encodes a 481-amino-acid protein that contains a highly conserved patatin-like domain with lipolytic activity toward triglycerides (13Dongiovanni P. Donati B. Fares R. Lombardi R. Mancina R.M. Romeo S. Valenti L. PNPLA3 I148M polymorphism and progressive liver disease.World J.

Characterization of the human patatin-like phospholipase family.J. Lipid Res. 2006; 47: 1940-1949Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (215) Google Scholar). Biochemical analysis indicates that the PNPLA3 protein exerts lipase activity and may play a role in the hydrolysis of glycerolipids, with maximum enzymatic activity against triglycerides, diacylglyerol, and monacylglycerol (15Huang Y. Cohen J.C. Hobbs H.H. Expression and characterization of a PNPLA3 protein isoform (I148M) associated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.J. Biol. Chem. 2011; 286: 37085-37093Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (205) Google Scholar). A genome-wide association study of a multiethnic population found that a single rs738409 C>G polymorphism of PNPLA3, which encodes I148M, is strongly associated with hepatic fat content and conferred susceptibility to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) (11Romeo S. Kozlitina J. Xing C. Pertsemlidis A. Cox D. Pennacchio L.A. Boerwinkle E. Cohen J.C. Hobbs H.H. Genetic variation in PNPLA3 confers susceptibility to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.Nat.

No meta-analysis to date has examined the association between the aforementioned rs738409 variant and cirrhosis. Therefore, to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the strength of this association, we reviewed the available published literature and carried out meta-analysis to assess the risk of cirrhosis on the basis of rs738409 allele frequency (C vs. G) and genotype (CC vs. GG vs. GC). The literature search, data extraction, review, and data analysis were performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines (34Moher D. Liberati A. Tetzlaff J. Altman D.G. Preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses: the PRISMA statement.Int. J. Surg. 2010; 8: 336-341Crossref PubMed Scopus (7263) Google Scholar). Medline, the Cochrane Library, EMBASE, and Google Scholar were searched for articles published up to August 2013 that assessed the effect of the rs738409 (also called I148) variant in the PNPLA3 gene on cirrhosis using a differing combination of the following terms: PNPLA3, I148, rs738409, adiponutrin, and cirrhosis. Prospective and retrospective studies were included if subjects were 18 years of age and older and had liver cirrhosis, regardless of cause. All studies had to be in English. Excluded studies included letters, comments, editorials, or case reports. Two independent reviewers screened potentially relevant studies, and both had to agree for inclusion of an article. If there was disagreement between reviewers, it was resolved by a third reviewer. The following information was extracted from the included studies: the name of the first author, year of publication, study design, number of participants in each genotype group, participants' age and gender, diagnoses, and number or association with cirrhosis. The data were extracted by two reviewers. A third reviewer collated and checked the pooled data prior to the data being assessed by a statistician. The quality of included studies was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, which is a validated technique to assess the quality of nonrandomized studies (35Wells, G. A., Shea, B., O'Connell, D., Peterson, J., Welch, V., Losos, M., Tugwell, P. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for assessing the quality of nonrandomised studies in meta-analyses.

The primary outcome measure was the association of rs738409 with cirrhosis. The OR with 95% CI was calculated for the primary outcome in the cirrhosis group compared with the control group. Heterogeneity among the eligible studies was assessed by determining the Cochran Q and the I2 statistic. For the Q statistic, P < 0.10 was considered to indicate statistically significant heterogeneity. For the I2 statistic, which indicates the percentage of the observed between-study variability due to heterogeneity rather than chance, no heterogeneity was indicated by 0% to 25%, moderate heterogeneity was indicated by 25% to 50%, large heterogeneity was indicated by 50% to 75%, and extreme heterogeneity was indicated by 75% to 100%. Because the random effects model assumes that different studies may contain different underlying effects and takes into consideration both within- and between-study variation, the random effects model was adopted for the current study. Hence, pooled OR of the outcome was calculated by the DerSimonian-Laird method (36DerSimonian R. Laird N. Meta-analysis in clinical trials.Control. Clin. Trials. 1986; 7: 177-188Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (29196) Google Scholar). Allele frequencies of the PNPLA3 I148M were tested for consistency with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) using the Fisher's exact test. A two-sided P value < 0.05 indicated statistical significance. All statistical analyses were performed using the statistical software Comprehensive Meta-Analysis, version 2.0 (Biostat, Englewood, NJ). We identified 147 potential studies and excluded 135 for not being relevant or not meeting the inclusion criteria (Fig. 1). Of the 12 remaining studies, 2 were excluded due to lack of details of subjects needed for the analysis, another 2 did not have a suitable control arm, and 1 contained preliminary unpublished data. A total of seven studies were included; all were prospective in design (20Krawczyk M. Grunhage F. Zimmer V. Lammert F.
