Objective To systematically review the association between ORMDL3 gene rs7216389 polymorphism and the susceptibility to asthma among Chinese population. Methods Such databases as PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library (Issue 8, 2014), CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data were systemically searched to collect casecontrol studies published to August 2013. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data, and evaluated methodological quality of included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.2 software. Stata 11.0 software were used for publication bias evaluation. Results A total of 7 case-control studies were included, which involved 1 711 cases and 1 763 controls. The results of meta-analysis showed that, ORMDL3 gene rs7216389 polymorphism was associated with the susceptibility to asthma among Chinese population (OR=0.71, 95%CI 0.62 to 0.81, P<0.000 01). In the subgroup analysis by age, ORMDL3 gene rs7216389 polymorphism was associated with the susceptibility to adult asthma (OR=0.71, 95%CI 0.61 to 0.83, P<0.000 1) and children asthma (OR=0.69, 95%CI 0.52 to 0.90, P=0.006). Conclusion ORMDL3 gene rs7216389 polymorphism is a risk factor of adult and children asthma among Chinese population.
