Abstract
AIM: Vitamin D deficient patients present an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of active vitamin D analogue on cardiovascular outcomes in predialysis chronic kidney disease. METHODS: Pubmed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, and article reference lists were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared active vitamin D analogues with placebo or no treatment for patients with predialysis chronic kidney disease. A meta-analysis was conducted using the standard methods consistent with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Reviewer Manager Software, ver. 5.2, was used. RESULTS: Seven RCTs (five studies with paricalcitol and two studies with calcitriol, 731 patients) were included. Compared with control groups, active vitamin D reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events (RR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.13-0.59), induced an increase in those with proteinuria reduction (RR, 1.9; 95% CI, 1.34-2.71), but did not alter left ventricular mass index and systolic function (MD, 0.42 g/m2.7 ; 95% CI, -0.23-1.07 g/m2.7 , P = 0.21 for left ventricular mass index and MD, -0.33; 95% CI, -0.74-0.07, P = 0.1 for left ventricular ejection fraction). Neither systolic blood pressure nor diastolic blood pressure was reduced by active vitamin D (MD, 0.3 mmHg; 95% CI, -4.95-5.56 mmHg; MD, -0.24 mmHg; 95% CI: -6.21-5.72 mmHg, respectively). Increased probability of hypercalcaemia after paricalcitol therapy was found (RR, 7.85; 95% CI, 2.92-21.10). CONCLUSION: Active vitamin D reduced the incidence of cardiovascular events and induced a reduction in proteinuria, but its long-term effect on cardiac structure and function needed further confirmation. Increased probability of hypercalcaemia after paricalcitol therapy was found.
