Background:
Interleukin-33 (IL-33) has recently been implicated in tumor development.

Results:
There were eight documents included in this meta-analysis. The results showed IL33 levels to be higher in tumor patients than that in health people, but no correlations tumor stage, metastasis and survival time of tumor patients were evident.
Conclusion:
IL33 may be useful as an alarm factor in tumor detection and prognosis.
