LPL and stroke disorder: When meta-analysis was performed for all five pooled studies, we observed a significant protective association between LPL-HindIII and stroke risk in G vs. T (OR= 0.64, 95%CI= 0.54-0.76, P<0.001), GG vs. TT (OR= 0.47, 95%CI= 0.29-0.75, P= 0.001), TG vs. TT (OR= 0.65, 95%CI= 0.53-0.80, P<0.001), TG+GG vs. TT (OR= 0.62, 95%CI= 0.51-0.75, P<0.001), and GG vs. TT+TG (OR= 0.51, 95%CI= 0.32-0.82, P=0.005) (Figure 2).
