TSA of the analysis on the association between IL-6-174 G/C polymorphism and the risk of sepsis in non-adults under dominant model. A type I error of 5%, power of 80%, relative risk reduction of 20% were defined and control event proportion was an average of each included study. The vertical red line represents the required information size (sample size). The red curves represent the O’Brien-Fleming boundary and futility boundary. The blue line represents the cumulative Z-curve. RIS, required information size
