| Abstract | Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is one of the most common craniofacial malformation in humans. Three polymorphisms, rs2235371 and rs642961 in interferon regulatory factor 6 (IRF6), rs987525 on 8q24, have been shown to be associated with NSCL/P risk in several studies. However, the magnitudes of the association varied between studies. We therefore performed a meta-analysis to investigate this relationship. Two authors independently extracted information on the characteristics of the eligible studies. Either a fixed- or a random-effects model was used to calculate the overall combined risk estimates. Overall, 20 published case-control studies were included in the meta-analysis. We found that rs2235371 A allele had a significantly decreased risk (OR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.61-0.88), whereas rs642961 A allele had a significantly increased risk of NSCL/P (OR: 1.44, 95% CI: 1.30-1.59), compared with the G allele. For 8q24 rs987525, the A allele was associated with a significantly increased risk of NSCL/P, compared with the C allele (OR: 1.71, 95% CI: 1.40-2.09). Furthermore, in the stratified analysis by ethnicity and types of NSCL/P, significant associations were still observed in the subgroups of ethnicity and types. Taken together, the results suggest that the IRF6 rs2235371, rs642961, and 8q24 rs987525 polymorphisms are associated with NSCL/P risk. |

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.
