Abstract
Purpose: The goal of this meta-analysis was to establish whether statin treatment reduces Lp-PLA2 mass concentration and/or activity.
Methods: PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Google Scholar databases were searched using MESH terms and keywords. Randomized controlled trials (RCT) with either parallel or cross-over design examining the effect of statins on Lp-PLA2 mass and/or activity were included in meta-analysis.
Results: Out of 256 articles, 10 RCT were selected for meta-analysis. Statin therapy significantly reduced both Lp-PLA2 mass (WMD -44.46 ng/mL; 95%CI -59.01, -29.90; p < 0.001; I2 = 93%) and activity (WMD -39.37 nmol/min/mL; 95%CI -69.99, -8.75; p = 0.01; I2 = 100%). The sensitivity analysis was robust for Lp-PLA2 mass and was also positive for two studies concerning Lp-PLA2 activity.
Conclusion: Statin therapy significantly reduced both Lp-PLA2 mass and activity.
