A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis on Metabolic Bone Disease in Patients with Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Data about the association between primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and metabolic bone disease are still unclear. PSC is a chronic cholestatic liver disease (CCLD) which affects the biliary tract, and it has a highly variable natural history. We systematically searched until 28 February 2022 MED...

description | Data about the association between primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and metabolic bone disease are still unclear. PSC is a chronic cholestatic liver disease (CCLD) which affects the biliary tract, and it has a highly variable natural history. We systematically searched until 28 February 2022 MEDLINE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, the ISI Web of Science, and SCOPUS, for studies in patients with PSC. We identified 343 references to potential studies. After screening them, we included eight studies (893 PSC patients, 398 primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) patients, and 673 healthy controls) for the present meta-analysis. Pooled analyses found no difference in BMD-LS (Z = 0.02, <i>p</i>-value = 0.98) between PSC patients and healthy controls. BMD-LS was statistically lower in PBC patients than in PSC patients (Mean Difference, MD, 0.06, 95% CI 0.03 to 0.09, <i>p</i>-value = 0.0007). The lumbar spine T-score was higher in the PSC patients compared with PBC patients (MD 0.23, 95% CI 0.04 to 0.42, <i>p</i>-value = 0.02). Given the limited literature available, better designed, and larger scale primary studies will be required to confirm our conclusion. |
