Increasing evidence from randomized controlled trials shows the anti-inflammatory and haemodynamic effects of levosimendan in advanced heart failure (AdHF), however, conflicting results have been reported in some studies. The aim of this study was to estimate the anti-inflammatory and haemodynamic effects of levosimendan on AdHF (registration number: INPLASY202250097).
The MEDLINE, PubMed, ClinicalTrials.com and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched for studies published in English up to April 2019. Data were extracted from applicable articles. Meta-analyses were performed to assess interleukin (IL)-6, cardiac index, pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class efficacy outcomes, following PRISMA 2020 guidelines.
A total of 11 studies were included (211 patients who received levosimendan and 193 controls). Meta-analyses showed that the levosimendan group displayed significantly reduced IL-6 (standardized mean difference [SMD] -1.05; 95% confidence interval [CI] -1.44, -0.66; I= 50.9%), improved cardiac index (SMD 0.59; 95% CI 0.29, 0.88; I= 0.0%); reduced PAP (SMD -1.22; 95% CI -1.91, -0.53; I= 89.7%) and improved NYHA functional class (SMD -1.66; 95% CI -2.27, -1.04; I= 74.6%) versus controls.
Levosimendan infusion was beneficial in patients with AdHF, displayed by anti-inflammatory and improved haemodynamic effects, and improved NYHA functional class.
越来越多的随机对照试验证据表明,左西孟旦在晚期心力衰竭(AdHF)中具有抗炎和血液动力学作用,然而,一些研究报告了相互矛盾的结果。本研究旨在评估左西孟旦对 AdHF 的抗炎和血液动力学作用(注册号:INPLASY202250097)。
系统检索了截至 2019 年 4 月发表的英文文献的 MEDLINE、PubMed、ClinicalTrials.com 和 Cochrane Library 数据库。从适用文章中提取数据。根据 PRISMA 2020 指南进行荟萃分析,以评估白细胞介素(IL)-6、心指数、肺动脉压(PAP)和纽约心脏协会(NYHA)功能分类疗效结局。
共纳入 11 项研究(211 例接受左西孟旦治疗的患者和 193 例对照)。荟萃分析显示,左西孟旦组的 IL-6 明显降低(标准化均数差[SMD]-1.05;95%置信区间[CI]-1.44,-0.66;I=50.9%),心指数改善(SMD 0.59;95%CI 0.29,0.88;I=0.0%),PAP 降低(SMD-1.22;95%CI-1.91,-0.53;I=89.7%),NYHA 功能分类改善(SMD-1.66;95%CI-2.27,-1.04;I=74.6%)。
与对照组相比,左西孟旦输注对 AdHF 患者有益,表现为抗炎和改善血液动力学作用,并改善 NYHA 功能分类。
