Abstract
INTRODUCTION: The present meta-analysis aimed to investigate FTO rs9939609 and KISS1 rs4889, rs372790354 gene polymorphisms and its association with PCOS in Asian population. METHODS: The studies included in this article were obtained by using online databases. We searched databases such as Scopus, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science for case-control articles related to FTO and KISS1 gene polymorphism with PCOS. Metagenyo software was used to determine the 95% confidence interval (CI) and odds ratio (OR). RESULTS: A total of 13 articles was included in this meta-analysis for FTO (rs9939609) and KISS1 (rs4889; rs372790354) gene polymorphisms related with PCOS in the Asian population. According to the findings of this study, people with FTO rs9939609 show an association with PCOS risk in dominant model. On contradictory, KISS1 gene polymorphism specifically, rs4889 show an association with PCOS risk in allelic, recessive, and dominant models whereas rs372790354 show an association with PCOS risk in allelic and dominant models. Power analysis was performed and PPI is > 0.04. The sting analysis network for FTO and KISS1 gene estimated 12 nodes and 23 edges. DISCUSSION: The FTO rs9939609 variant exhibits an association with an increased risk of PCOS in the dominant model. KISS1 gene polymorphism, particularly rs4889, shows a significant association with PCOS risk in allelic, recessive, and dominant models. Similarly, KISS1 rs372790354 gene is associated with PCOS risk in both allelic and dominant models. Researches were focused only on the Asian population so; it is imperative to conduct further research across diverse populations.
