Multiple studies had focused on the association between interleukin-1 (IL-1) rs1143634 polymorphism and aggressive periodontitis (AgP) susceptibility, but the results remained inconclusive. Therefore, this meta-analysis was conducted to explore its role in the development of AgP. PubMed and Embase databases were searched up to April 15, 2014. After study selection and data extraction form eligible studies, meta-analysis was performed. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the association. All the analysis was performed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis software. Finally a total of 25 case-control studies were included. The pooled results showed non-association between AgP susceptibility and IL-1 rs1143634 polymorphism [for T vs. C: OR = 0.99, 95% CI = 0.79-1.23; for TT vs. CC: OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 0.78-1.66; for CT vs. CC: OR = 0.97, 95% CI = 0.70-1.36; for (CT + TT) vs. CC: OR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.76-1.37; for TT vs. (CT + CC): OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 0.85-1.75]. Subgroup analyses remain did not find any association. No publication bias was detected. Hence, our meta-analysis showed that IL-1β rs1143634 polymorphism is not linked to AgP susceptibility, regardless of ethnicity.

Host genetic variation has been recognized as a key predictor of diverse clinical sequelae among severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)-infected patients. Insights into the link between the Interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) and Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) genetic variation and severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) are crucial for developing new predictors and therapeutic targets. We aimed to investigate the association of IL-6R rs12083537, IL-1β rs16944, and IL-1β rs1143634 SNPs with the severity of COVID-19.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the association between variants in the interleukin (IL)-1 gene cluster and susceptibility to keratoconus (KC) in an Iranian population.
Methods: In the case group, there were 188 KC patients diagnosed by clinical findings and corneal tomography. The control group included all 205 healthy controls with no personal or family history of eye-related, metabolic, or immune system-related disease.

Periprosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are serious complications of prosthetic surgery. The criteria for the diagnosis of PJI integrate clinical and laboratory findings in a complex and sometimes inconclusive workflow. Host immune factors hold potential as diagnostic biomarkers in bone and joint infections.

Background: The pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1 plays an important role in severe COVID-19. A change in IL-1 production may be associated with a mutation in the IL1Β gene. Our study analyzed the impact of the IL1Β gene variants (rs1143634) on disease progression in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia, taking into account treatment strategies.
