    • Abstract:
      Background: To assess whether vitamin D receptor ( VDR ) gene polymorphisms influence the susceptibility to periodontitis. Methods: We retrieved 34 relevant studies, comprising a total of 3848 subjects suffering from periodontitis and 3470 controls for this meta-analysis. The pooled data were analyzed using STATA software. Results: Among all ethnic groups examined, the VDR Bsm I polymorphism was associated with periodontitis under the recessive model (odds ratio [OR] = 0.722, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.532-0.980, p  = 0.037). There was also a link between the VDR Fok I polymorphism and periodontitis in the overall population (dominant model: OR = 1.459, 95% CI: 1.050-2.028, p  = 0.025 and allelic model: OR = 1.386, 95% CI: 1.026-1.874, p  = 0.034) and in Chinese participants (dominant model: OR = 1.813, 95% CI: 1.185-2.774, p  = 0.006; allelic model: OR = 1.602, 95% CI: 1.044-2.459, p  = 0.031) when stratified by race. The Fok I variant was also correlated with aggressive periodontitis (AP) (dominant model: OR = 2.204, 95% CI: 1.148-4.231, p  = 0.018; allelic model: OR = 2.017, 95% CI: 1.365-2.980, p  = 0.000; and recessive model: OR = 2.903, 95% CI: 1.520-5.542, p  = 0.001). We also showed a correlation between the VDR Taq I variant and periodontitis susceptibility in Caucasian populations (dominant model: OR = 0.525, 95% CI: 0.318-0.866, p  = 0.012). The results revealed that there was no relationship between the VDR Apa I gene polymorphism and periodontitis. Conclusions: There was a link between the VDR Bsm I and Fok I gene polymorphisms and periodontitis in the overall population. In addition, the Fok I polymorphism was correlated with AP. There was a link between the Taq I polymorphism and periodontitis in the Caucasian population. The VDR Apal variant, however, was not correlated with periodontitis.
