High-density lipoprotein particles are associated with the risk of mortality from all-causes and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) in patients with CVD: a systematic review and meta-analysis study
摘要
Increasing data indicate that the concentration of high-density lipoprotein particles (HDL-p) may be a strong indicator of cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to carry out a meta-analysis to examine the link between subclasses of HDL-p and the hazard of mortality in individuals suffering from cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).
MethodsA rigorous systematic search was executed through Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science up to April 2025.
ResultsSeven unique cohort studies were deemed eligible for incorporation in this meta-analysis. The overall hazard was derived by applying a random effects model. The results indicated a negative association of total HDL-p (RR: 0.74, 95% CI: 0.69–0.78, P < 0.001) and small HDL-p with all-cause mortality (RR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.63–0.75, P < 0.001) for each 5 µmol/l increment. Similarly, each 5 µmol/l large HDL-p was directly related to all-cause mortality (RR: 1.71, 95% CI: 1.14– 2.56; P = 0.009). Moreover, each 5 µmol/l increase in small HDL-p was linked to a 33% reduction in CVD mortality (RR: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.50–0.91; P = 0.01).
ConclusionThis study revealed that small and total HDL-p were negatively correlated with all-cause mortality, whereas latge HDL-p was positively related to mortality from all causes. Additionally, small HDL-p had an inverse relationship with CVD mortality in patients with CVD.
