Efficacy and safety of different anti-osteoporotic drugs for the spinal fusion surgery: A network meta-analysis.
World Journal of Clinical Cases 2023 October 27
BACKGROUND: Administering anti-osteoporotic agents to patients perioperatively is a widely accepted approach for improving bone fusion rates and reducing the risk of complications. The best anti-osteoporotic agents for spinal fusion surgery remain unclear.
AIM: To investigate the efficacy and safety of different anti-osteoporotic agents in spinal fusion surgery via network meta-analysis.
METHODS: Searches were conducted in four electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) from inception to November 2022. Any studies that compared anti-osteoporotic agents vs placebo for spinal fusion surgery were included in this network meta-analysis. Outcomes included fusion rate, Oswestry disability index (ODI), and adverse events. Network meta-analysis was performed by R software with the gemtc package.
RESULTS: In total, 13 randomized controlled trials were included in this network meta-analysis. Only teriparatide (OR 3.2, 95%CI: 1.4 to 7.8) was more effective than placebo in increasing the fusion rate. The surface under the cumulative ranking curve (SUCRA) of teriparatide combined with denosumab was the highest (SUCRA, 90.9%), followed by teriparatide (SUCRA, 74.0%), zoledronic acid (SUCRA, 43.7%), alendronate (SUCRA, 41.1%) and risedronate (SUCRA, 35.0%). Teriparatide (MD -15, 95%CI: -28 to -2.7) and teriparatide combined with denosumab (MD -20, 95%CI: -40 to -0.43) were more effective than placebo in decreasing the ODI. The SUCRA of teriparatide combined with denosumab was highest (SUCRA, 90.8%), followed by teriparatide (SUCRA, 74.5%), alendronate (SURCA, 52.7), risedronate (SURCA, 52.1%), zoledronic acid (SURCA, 24.2%) and placebo (SURCA, 5.6%) for ODI. The adverse events were not different between groups.
CONCLUSION: This network meta-analysis suggests that teriparatide combined with denosumab and teriparatide alone significantly increase the fusion rate and decrease the ODI without increasing adverse events. Based on current evidence, teriparatide combined with denosumab or teriparatide alone is recommended to increase the fusion rate and to reduce ODI in spinal fusion patients.
