| Abstract | Many studies have suggested that transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) gene might be involved in the development of hypertension. However, results have been inconsistent. In this study, the authors performed a meta-analysis to investigate the associations of +869T/C and +915G/C polymorphisms in TGF-β1 gene with hypertension risk in Chinese. Published literature from PubMed, EMBASE, CNKI, CBM, and Wanfang Data were searched. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using fixed or random-effects model. Nine studies (1,995 cases/1,840 controls) for +869T/C polymorphism and seven studies (1,547 cases/1,577 controls) for +915G/C polymorphism were included in the meta-analysis. The overall result showed that there was a statistically significant association between +869T/C polymorphism and hypertension risk (CC vs. TT: OR = 1.80, 95% CI 1.34–2.44). Similar results were found among two geographic locations and two subgroups with different sample size. However, no significant association was found for +915G/C polymorphism with the risk of hypertension (CC vs. GG: OR = 1.66, 95% CI 0.74–3.74). The meta-analysis indicated the significant association of +869T/C, but not +915G/C polymorphism with hypertension susceptibility. However, given the limited sample size, the associations warrant further investigation. |

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.
