| Abstract | Recently, genome-wide association studies on coronary artery disease (CAD) identified a series of associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in an intergenic region of chromosome 9p21.3, near the CDKN2A and CDKN2B genes. We investigated the association of this locus with CAD in 12 case–control studies of East Asians and undertook a meta-analysis for effect size, heterogeneity, publication bias, and strength of evidence. English and Chinese language articles were tested for 9p21.3 SNPs with coronary heart/artery disease or myocardial infarction as primary outcomes. Included articles also provided race, numbers of participants, and data to compute an odds ratio (OR). Articles were excluded if reporting other outcomes (e.g., stroke). Thirty-five articles were initially identified and 12 were included. Independent extraction was performed by two reviewers and consensus was reached. SNP rs1333049, rs2383206 and rs10757278 representing the 9p21.3 locus, were genotyped in 12 case–control studies involving a total of 9,813 patients and 10,710 controls. For rs1333049 (8 data sets), using a fixed-effects model, the summary OR was 1.29 (95 % CI, 1.23–1.36, P = 0.001). For rs2383206 (6 data sets), using a fixed-effects model, the summary OR was 1.24 (95 % CI, 1.18–1.31, P = 0.001). For rs10757278 (6 data sets), using a random-effects model, the summary OR was 1.34 (95 % CI, 1.21–1.50, P = 0.001). In addition, we defined the haploblock structure of SNPs within the region of 9p21.3 in China population in one study. This broad replication provides unprecedented evidence for association between genetic variants at chromosome 9p21.3 and risk of CAD in East Asians. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
