Causal association between lipoproteins and risk of coronary artery disease-a systematic review and meta-analysis of Mendelian randomization studies.
OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the causal effect of lipoproteins to the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) by systematic review and meta-analysis of the associated Mendelian randomization (MR) studies.
METHODS: This systematic review was registered in PROSPERO (ID CRD42023465430). Searches from the databases (e.g., PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, Web of Science) and non-database sources to collect MR studies. The search time frame was from the database inception to August 2023. After data extraction, quality evaluation was performed, and the meta-analysis with bias evaluation was carried out with RevMan software.
RESULTS: A total of 5,828,409 participants from 21 records were included. Quality and bias assessment was performed by evaluating the internal three assumptions of MR studies. Meta-analysis for the causal association between non-HDL lipoproteins and CAD showed a significantly positive association between LDL and CAD (OR 1.37, 95% CI 1.26-1.49; P < 0.001, I2 = 95%), apoB and CAD (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.11-1.71; P = 0.003, I2 = 98%), and Lp(a) and CAD (OR 1.21, 95% CI 1.12-1.31; P < 0.001, I2 = 99%). Interestingly, although there was no statistical significance in the association between VLDL/apoA1 and CAD (both P > 0.05), the pooled non-HDL lipoproteins showed a significantly positive association with CAD (OR 1.28, 95% CI 1.22-1.34; P < 0.001, I2 = 99%). For the HDL lipoproteins, the pooled OR showed a significantly negative association with CAD (OR 0.84, 95% CI 0.72-0.98; P = 0.002, I2 = 72%). However, the protective effect of HDL on CAD diminished when analyzed together with apoA1 and/or apoB (both P > 0.05). The funnel plot did not show serious publication bias, and sensitivity analysis performed relatively well robustness of the causal association of LDL, apoB, Lp(a), and total cholesterol with CAD.
CONCLUSION: The present meta-analysis suggests an overall effect of causal association between lipoproteins and CAD. Most of the non-HDL lipoproteins (LDL, apoB, Lp(a)) promote CAD, while the protective effect of HDL in CAD still needs to be verified in the future.
