Association between genetic polymorphism and antidepressants in major depression: a network meta-analysis.

Abstract

This network meta-analysis was conducted to compare the predictive value of eight SNPs on the efficacy of antidepressants in major depressive disorder (MDD), including 5-HTTLPR, 5HTR2A(rs6311, rs6314, rs7997012 andrs6313), 5HTR2A(rs6295), BDNF(rs6265)and 5HTTSTin2.Databases were searched for related studies published up to December 2019. A total of 16 studieswere included in thisstudy.The predictive value were evaluated by the use of the odd ratios (OR) and drawing surface under the cumulative ranking curves (SUCRA). The pairwise meta-analysis indicated that in terms of overall response ratio, the SNPs were not associated with the efficacy of antidepressants in MDD. The result of this network meta-analysis suggested that there was no significant difference in predictive value of eightSNPs on the efficacy of antidepressants in MDD. More research is needed to explore the relationship between SNPs and antidepressant response.
