We searched and collected data from PUBMED, EMBASE, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and WANGFANG up to October 2014.Results: A total of 37 studies were enrolled, including 8625 TB cases, and 9928 healthy controls. The IL-10-1082G/A polymorphism was found to be associated with TB susceptibility in Caucasian (GG versus GA+AA, odds ratio [OR] - 1.83, 95\% confidence interval [CI] - 1.03-3.24). The IL-10-819C/T polymorphism was related to TB susceptibility among Asians (C versus T, OR - 0.88, 95\% CI - 0.81-0.97; CC versus TT: OR - 0.79, 95\% CI - 0.64-0.97; CC+CT versus TT: OR - 0.87, 95\% CI - 0.77-0.98; CC versus CT+TT: OR - 0.82, 95\% CI - 0.68-0.98). The IL-10-592C/A polymorphism was in association with TB susceptibility in Asians (C versus A: OR - 0.74, 95\% CI - 0.65-0.85; CC versus AA: OR - 0.55, 95\% CI - 0.41-0.75; CA versus AA: OR - 0.73, 95\% CI - 0.60-0.89; CC+CA versus AA: OR - 0.69, 95\% CI 0.58-0.83; CA versus AA: OR - 0.66, 95\% CI 0.51-0.86), Caucasian (C versus A: OR - 1.25, 95\% CI - 1.08-1.45; CC versus CA+AA: OR-1.48, 95\% CI - 1.16-1.89), and Europeans (C versus A: OR - 1.31, 95\% CI - 1.02-1.67; CC versus AA: OR - 1.88, 95\% CI - 1.05-3.37).Conclusion: This meta-analysis suggests that IL-10-1082G/A, IL-819C/T, and IL-592C/A polymorphisms might be associated with TB susceptibility in certain ethnicities.}, issn = {0379-5284}, URL = {https://smj.org.sa/content/36/4/407}, eprint = {https://smj.org.sa/content/36/4/407.full.pdf}, journal = {Saudi Medical Journal} }
