ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) has gradually been promoted in clinical practice to lower the risk of cardiovascular surgery and postoperative complications. We investigated the role of IPC on vascular endothelial function and the relationship between IPC, flow-mediated dilation (FMD), and brachial artery diameter (BAD).METHODS:
Systematic searches were conducted in PubMed, Medline, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Scopus databases from their inception to March 20, 2020. This research included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with adults, and the values of FMD and BAD were considered as the primary outcomes. Ten studies comprising 292 participants were included in the meta-analysis.RESULTS:
Regarding FMD, we observed beneficial effects of IPC on endothelial function (standardized mean difference (SMD) 1.82; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.64, 3.01; p < 0.001; I 2 = 89.9%). However, the available evidence did not indicate that IPC affected BAD (SMD 0.08; 95% CI -0.03, 0.18; p > 0.05; I 2 = 76.5%).CONCLUSIONS:
Our meta-analysis indicated a significant effect of IPC on the endothelial function of the blood vessels, affecting FMD but not BAD.
