• Abstract Association of vitamin D receptor (VDR) BsmI (rs1544410) gene polymorphism with the intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH) level among patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) from the published reports is still conflicting. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between VDR BsmI (rs1544410) gene polymorphism and the iPTH level among patients with ESRD. The association studies were identified from PubMed, and Cochrane Library on 1 March 2014, and eligible investigations were included and synthesized using meta-analysis method. Six reports were recruited into this meta-analysis for the association of VDR BsmI gene polymorphism with iPTH level among patients with ESRD. In this meta-analysis, the iPTH level in ESRD patients carrying BsmI Bb genotype was higher than that in ESRD patients carrying bb genotype in overall populations (Bb versus bb: OR = 61.40, 95% CI: 19.65-103.16, p = 0.004). However, the iPTH level in ESRD patients carrying BB genotype was not significant different from that in ESRD patients with Bb genotype and bb genotype in overall populations (BB versus Bb: OR = −18.30, 95% CI: −126.28-89.69, p = 0.74; BB versus bb: OR = 22.85, 95% CI: −70.81-116.51, p = 0.63). Furthermore, the results for Caucasians were similar to those in overall populations. In conclusion, the iPTH level in ESRD patients carrying BsmI Bb genotype was higher than that in ESRD patients carrying bb genotype in overall populations and in Caucasians. However, more studies should be conducted to confirm it.
