Systematic review and meta‐analysis of potential pleiotropic effects of sevelamer in chronic kidney disease: Beyond phosphate control

Sevelamer, has been shown to have many pleiotropic actions on lipid panel, various inflammatory markers, and blood glucose levels in chronic kidney disease patients. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis to compare these pleiotropic effects of sevelamer to other phosphate binders used i...

Description
Summary:Sevelamer, has been shown to have many pleiotropic actions on lipid panel, various inflammatory markers, and blood glucose levels in chronic kidney disease patients. We conducted a systematic review and meta‐analysis to compare these pleiotropic effects of sevelamer to other phosphate binders used in chronic kidney disease patients. The relevant randomized controlled trials published from 1 January 2001 to 31 November 2019 on the following databases: Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials published in The Cochrane Library, PubMed, Scopus and Google Scholar were identified. All the included studies were independently assessed for eligibility and risk of bias. The modified data extraction form of Cochrane was used. This review included 44 studies for qualitative analysis and 28 reports for quantitative analysis. A meta‐analysis of three studies (n = 180) showed that glycated haemoglobin had significantly decreased in sevelamer‐treated patients (MD: 0.5%; p =
