Association of AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism with the risk of heart failure: a meta-analysis

J. A. Zhang, Li, J. R., and Qiao, Y. J., Association of AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism with the risk of heart failure: a meta-analysis, vol. 14, pp. 9163-9170, 2015.

The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between the A1166C polymorphism in the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) gene and heart failure (HF) risk using meta‑analysis. The PubMed database was searched, and data were extracted independently by two reviewers. Odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the associations. Statistical analysis was performed using the STATA 12.0 software.
