Core Tip	Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is one of the central proinflammatory factors in the pathology of acute pancreatitis (AP). Nevertheless, the relationship between TLR4 polymorphisms and AP susceptibility has been controversial. Here, we performed a systematic meta-analysis of TLR4 polymorphisms and AP risk, and our data showed that TLR4 Asp299Gly and Thr399Ile polymorphisms may not be associated with AP susceptibility.
