Associations between the tumor necrosis factor-α gene and interleukin-10 gene polymorphisms and risk of alcoholic liver disease: A meta-analysis

The TNFA-238G>A polymorphism was significantly associated with ALD risk, while the TNFA-308G>A polymorphism and IL-10 polymorphisms (-1082A>G and -592C>A) may not be associated with the individual susceptibility to ALD. The impact of combined TNFA and IL-10 polymorphisms on individual susceptibility to ALD needs to be investigated in future studies.
