    BackgroundAccording to the relevant reports that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may contribute to change of homocysteine (HCY) levels and increase the risk of hypertension (HTN). During the inconsistent results, this meta-analysis purpose is systematically review and synthesized relevant data on HCY levels and SNPs in HTN.MethodsThe systematic search database, from the following database to find out the association studies of SNPs and HTN publications up until March 2020 from the databases of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), the Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database (VIP) and Wan fang databases, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM). Network meta-analysis and Thakkinstian's algorithm were used to select the most appropriate genetic model, along with false positive report probability (FPRP) for noteworthy associations. All statistical analyses were calculated with STATA software (version 14.0; StataCorp, College Station, TX).ResultsThis meta-analysis will provide high-quality evidence to the effects of SNP on HTN and levels of HCY, and find between SNPs and HTN susceptibility on in all the genetic models, and choose the best one.ConclusionsThis meta-analysis will research which SNP is the most correlated with HTN risk.RegistrationINPLASY202050002.
