The relationship between TREM1 polymorphisms and glioma risk was calculated using the logistic regression model, with odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). A multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) method was performed to assess SNP–SNP interactions to predict glioma risk.Results: In this research, overall analysis illustrated an association between TREM1 rs9369269 and an increased risk of glioma. Rs9369269 was also related to the risk of glioma in patients aged ≤ 40 years and females. Subjects with rs9369269 AC genotype were likely to obtain glioma compared to people with CC genotype (patients with astroglioma vs healthy people). Compared to TT genotype carriers, carriers with AT genotype of rs1351835 were significantly associated with overall survival (OS).Conclusion: Taken together, the study identified the association between TREM1 variants and glioma risk and TREM1 variants were significantly associated with the prognosis of glioma. In the future, larger samples are needed to verify the results.Keywords: glioma, TREM1, single nucleotide polymorphisms, risk
