Effect of lifestyle intervention on indexes of patients with dyslipidemia: a meta-analysis / 中华老年医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of lifestyle intervention on the indexes of patients with dyslipidemia.Methods CNKI,Wanfang Database,VIP,PubMed,Web of Science,EBSCO,EMbase,the Cochrane Library,Clinical Trials,MEDLINE were retrieved.The search terms included lifestyle intervention,lifestyle,diet,physical activity,dyslipidemia,hypercholesterolemia,lipid,low fat diet,plant sterols,low-glycemic index(GI)diets,mono-unsaturated fatty acids.Articles on randomized controlled trials(RCTs)to study the effect of lifestyle intervention on the indexes of patients with dyslipidemia were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.Meta-analyses were conducted by using RevMan 5.3 software after extracting data.Results 19 articles were internalized,including 2 294 patients(intervention group,n=1,170)and(control group,n =1,124).According to the results of intervention group versus control group,total cholesterol of weighted mean difference(WMD)was (-0.61,95 ％CI.-0.84～-0.38,P＜0.01),triglyceride of WMD was(-0.28,95 ％ CI-0.42～ 0.15),P＜0.01),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol of WMD was (-0.45,95 ％ CI-0.72 ～ 0.18,P ＜0.01),(all P＜0.01),with significantly lower WMD in intervention group than in control group.The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol of WMD was (-0.05,95 ％ CI-0.22 ～ 0.12,P =0.59),the difference was not significant.Conclusions Lifestyle intervention improves serum levels of total cholesterol,triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol for dyslipidemia patients,but its effect on high-density lipoprotein cholesterol is not significant.
