Abstract

Background: The present meta-analysis was performed to investigate the association of promoter region polymorphisms at IL-6 and IL-18 genes with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) risk. Methods: An electronic search of the PubMed, Embase, ISI Web of Knowledge and CNKI databases was performed to identify eligible studies up to May 30, 2019. Results: A total of 31 case-control studies were finally selected. Significant associations with the risk of RPL were detected for the IL-6 -174 G > C, -634 G > C and IL-18 -137 G > C polymorphisms in overall population. Further, subgroup analyses by ethnicity revealed that the IL-6 -174 G > C and -634 G > C polymorphisms were significantly associated with risk of RPL risk in Asians. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the IL-6 -174 G > C, -634 G > C and IL-18 -137 G > C polymorphisms may contribute to the susceptibility of RPL. The IL-18 -607 C > A polymorphism does not appear to influence the development of RPL. © 2019 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
