Meta AnalysisIdiopathic Venous Thromboembolism and Metabolic Syndrome: A Meta-analysis.
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a recognised risk factor for arterial thromboembolism. However, whether MetS is also a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE) is uncertain. PubMed, Embase, Web of science, and Cochrane databases were searched for case-control and cohort studies as well as conference proceedings of the International society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH), and the Women's Health International Symposium Thrombosis and Hemostasis Branch (WHITH) published on or before March 1, 2021, to identify eligible studies. ⋯ There were 31 case-control and 5 cohort studies with a total of 78,529 participants that fulfilled the inclusion criteria, MetS (OR 1.49; 95% CI 1.29-1.73) and its critical component obesity (OR 2.03; 95% CI 1.74-2.37), hypertension (OR 1.40; 95% CI 1.19-1.64) and diabetes mellitus (OR 1.22; 95% CI 1.01-1.48) were significant risk factors for VTE. MetS and its critical component obesity may contribute to the multifactorial pathogenesis of VTE. Key Words: Venous thromboembolism, Metabolic syndrome, Obesity.
