Abstract
Background: This study aimed to investigate the effect of tolvaptan on metabolism and electrolyte homeostasis in patients with heart failure (HF).
Methods: Literature databases, such as PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and WanFang Data, were systematically searched for relevant trials from inception to November 4, 2023. We used the fixed effect model to combine the effect sizes and used I2 to test heterogeneity. Funnel plots were plotted to assess publication bias.
Results: 16 studies were eligible for further analysis. No significant differences were identified in the incidence of hyperuricemia between the tolvaptan group and the placebo group (odds ratio (OR) = 1.23, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.97 to 1.55, p = 0.09). Tolvaptan decreased the levels of blood uric acid compared to traditional diuretics (mean difference (MD) = -82.8, 95% CI = -96.48 to -69.13, p < 0.00001). There was no significant difference in hypernatremia (OR = 1.62, 95% CI = 0.66 to 3.96, p = 0.29) and hyperkalemia (OR = 1.17, 95% CI = 0.93 to 1.48, p = 0.18) between the tolvaptan and control groups.
Conclusions: Tolvaptan reduced the level of blood uric acid compared to conventional diuretics, and could be used as a substitute for traditional diuretics for HF patients with a high risk of gout.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
