BACKGROUND
We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) levels between women with post-menopausal osteopenia or osteoporosis to those with normal bone mineral density (BMD).
METHODS
We used Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus to conduct a systematic search for relevant publications published before June 19, 2022, only in English language. We reported standardized mean difference (SMD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Because a significant level of heterogeneity was found, we used the random-effects model to calculate pooled effects. We used the Newcastle-Ottawa scale for quality assessment.
RESULTS
Overall, eight articles were included in the analysis. Post-menopausal women with osteoporosis had elevated levels of NLR compared to those without osteoporosis (SMD = 1.03, 95% CI = 0.18 to 1.88, p = 0.017, I = 98%). In addition, there was no difference between post-menopausal women with osteopenia and those without osteopenia in neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR) levels (SMD = 0.58, 95% CI=-0.08 to 1.25, p = 0.085, I = 96.8%). However, there was no difference between post-menopausal women with osteoporosis and those with osteopenia in NLR levels (SMD = 0.75, 95% CI=-0.01 to 1.51, p = 0.05, I = 97.5%, random-effect model).
CONCLUSION
The results of this study point to NLR as a potential biomarker that may be easily introduced into clinical settings to help predict and prevent post-menopausal osteoporosis.
背景
我们进行了一项系统评价和荟萃分析,比较了绝经后骨质疏松症或骨量减少的女性与正常骨密度(BMD)的女性之间的中性粒细胞淋巴细胞比值(NLR)水平。
方法
我们使用 Web of Science、PubMed 和 Scopus 进行了系统搜索,以查找截至 2022 年 6 月 19 日之前发表的仅以英文发表的相关文献。我们报告了标准化均数差(SMD)及其 95%置信区间(CI)。由于存在显著的异质性,我们使用随机效应模型计算了合并效应。我们使用纽卡斯尔-渥太华量表进行质量评估。
结果
总体而言,有八项研究纳入了分析。与无骨质疏松症的女性相比,患有骨质疏松症的绝经后女性 NLR 水平升高(SMD=1.03,95%CI=0.18 至 1.88,p=0.017,I=98%)。此外,患有骨量减少的绝经后女性与无骨量减少的女性之间的 NLR 水平无差异(SMD=0.58,95%CI=-0.08 至 1.25,p=0.085,I=96.8%)。然而,患有骨质疏松症的绝经后女性与患有骨量减少的女性之间的 NLR 水平无差异(SMD=0.75,95%CI=-0.01 至 1.51,p=0.05,I=97.5%,随机效应模型)。
结论
本研究结果表明,NLR 可能是一种潜在的生物标志物,易于引入临床实践,以帮助预测和预防绝经后骨质疏松症。
