RESUMEN
Recent genetic evidence suggests a robust association of the CARD14 single nucleotide polymorphism rs11652075 (c.C2458T/p.Arg820Trp) and other rare mutations in this gene with psoriasis. To assess whether combined data support the relationship between CARD14 rs11652075 and susceptibility to this disease, we conducted a meta-analysis. PubMed (MEDLINE), EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched for relevant papers published in English. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random-effect models. Heterogeneity between studies was assessed using the Cochran's Q and I2 statistics. A total of five published studies, including 32,807 psoriasis patients and 45,458 controls, met our inclusion criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled OR of the association between the minor allele of this polymorphism and psoriasis was 0.877 (95%CI = 0.834-0.922; P < 0.001). In a stratified analysis, pooled ORs relating to European and Asian ancestry were 0.883 (95%CI = 0.822-0.948) and 0.872 (95%CI = 0.812-0.936), respectively. Those calculated for studies with case sample sizes above and below 1000 were 0.912 (95%CI = 0.870- 0.956) and 0.824 (95%CI = 0.734-0.924), respectively. No publication bias was present, and the exclusion of any single dataset did not substantially alter the corresponding pooled ORs. Due to the limited data available regarding clinical classification of cases and genotypes, subgroup stratification by clinical type was not performed. Our results demonstrate a significant association between the CARD14 rs11652075 polymorphism and psoriasis.

Genome-wide association studies have identified a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs4722404, in the caspase recruitment domain family member 11 (CARD11) gene, which is associated with atopic dermatitis. Previous genetic studies have also reported genomic similarities between psoriasis and atopic dermatitis. However, little is known regarding the association between rs4722404 and psoriasis vulgaris (PsV). The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between rs4722404 and the risk and clinical features of PsV in a southern Chinese Han cohort. This hospital-based case-control study included 355 patients with PsV and 213 control subjects (N = 568); the samples were analyzed using a standard SNaPshot assay. We identified no association between the SNP and risk of PsV. However, a stratified analysis according to the age of onset, family history, and psoriasis area and severity index sub-phenotypes revealed a significant correlation between the C allele and CC+CT genotype of rs4722404 and an increased risk of early-onset PsV (≤40 years) compared to that of late-onset PsV (>40 years) (odds ratio, OR = 1.486; P = 0.026 for C allele and OR = 1.718, P = 0.023 for CC+CT genotype). The results of this study suggested that the SNP rs4722404 in CARD11 could increase the risk of early-onset PsV. Further studies must analyze the potential function of CARD11 in the pathogenesis of PsV.
