Exenatida; Metformina; Metaanálisis; Síndrome del Ovario PoliquísticoResumen
Introducción: El Síndrome del Ovario Poliquístico (SOP) es un trastorno hormonal que afecta al 5-10% de las mujeres que se encuentran en edad reproductiva. este metanálisis tiene como objetivo evaluar la eficacia de la metformina y la exenatida, respectivamente, y comparar la eficacia de ambos fármacos utilizando el Índice de Masa Corporal (IMC), el colesterol de lipoproteínas de baja densidad (LDL-C), el colesterol de lipoproteínas de alta densidad (HDL-C) y los niveles de testosterona.
Método: En este estudio se consultaron Scopus, Science Direct, Oxford Journal, Wiley Online Library y Medline a través del motor de búsqueda PubMed. El análisis estadístico de los estudios incluidos se realizó mediante el software RevMan 5.4.
Resultados: Hubo 6 estudios incluidos en el análisis del estudio. Hubo una reducción significativa en el IMC de las pacientes con SOP con exenatida frente a metformina (diferencia de medias = 0,51; intervalo de confianza (IC) del 95 % = 0,07; 0,96; I 2 = 52 %; p = 0,02). También hubo una reducción significativa en el nivel de testosterona de los pacientes con SOP con exenatida frente a metformina (diferencia de medias = 0,15; intervalo de confianza (IC) del 95 % = 0,07; 0,22;I 2 = 0 %; p = 0,0002). No hubo efecto sobre la media de LDL-C y de HDL-C cuando se comparó entre metformina y exenatida. Este muestra que la exenatida es eficaz para reducir el IMC y los niveles de testosterona en pacientes con SOP.
Conclusiones: Hubo una reducción significativa en el IMC y los niveles de testosterona de los pacientes con SOP cuando se usó exenatida en comparación con metformina. Sin embargo, no hubo efecto sobre la media de los niveles de LDL-C y HDL-C de las pacientes con SOP.
