Objective: To investigate the association between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism and the risk of unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (URPL). Design: Meta-analysis of published case-control studies of the MTHFR C677T variant and URPL risk. Setting: A research institution in China. Patient(s): Women with URPL. Intervention(s): None. Main Outcome Measure(s): Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for TT versus CC genotype, CT versus CC genotype, TT versus CT and CC genotype combined, and for T versus C allele. Result(s): Twenty-six studies with 2120 URPL cases and 2949 controls were included. Overall random-effects ORs of 1.49 (95% CI, 1.12-2.00) for TT versus CC genotype, 1.40 (95% CI, 1.11-1.77) for TT versus CT and CC genotype combined, and 1.21 (95% CI, 1.04-1.40) for T versus C allele were found. Stratified analysis showed that significant strong associations between MTHFR C677T polymorphism and URPL were present only in the five Chinese studies (OR = 2.96 for TT versus CC genotype; OR = 2.30 for TT versus CT+CC genotype; OR = 1.73 for T versus C allele), but not in any other studies, including the studies conducted in the European countries. Conclusion(s): The MTHFR C677T mutation is not a genetic risk factor for URPL except in a Chinese population.
