新出现的证据表明,他汀类药物可能会降低患癌症的风险。然而,关于前列腺癌(PCa)的现有证据是相互矛盾的。因此,我们通过对所有发表的关于这一主题的观察性研究进行详细的荟萃分析,研究了他汀类药物使用与PCa风险之间的关系。在PubMed数据库中进行了文献检索,直至2012年2月,寻找评价他汀类药物使用与PCa风险之间相关性的观察性研究。在进行荟萃分析之前,对研究的发表偏倚和异质性进行了评价。使用随机效应模型(DerSimonian和Laird方法)计算合并相对风险(RR)估计值和95%置信区间(CI)。还进行了亚组分析、敏感性分析和累积荟萃分析。共有27项研究(15项队列研究和12项病例对照研究)参与了分析。研究间存在异质性,但无发表偏倚。使用他汀类药物显著降低总PCa的风险7%(RR 0.93,95% CI 0.87-0.99,p = 0.03)和临床重要的晚期PCa的风险20%(RR 0.80,95% CI 0.70-0.90,p<0.001)。  长期使用他汀类药物对总PCa的风险没有显著影响(RR 0.94,95% CI 0.84-1.05,p = 0.31)。  按研究设计分层对RR没有实质性影响。敏感性分析证实了结果的稳定性。累积荟萃分析显示,1993年至2011年期间,他汀类药物使用者报告风险的趋势从阳性变为阴性。我们的荟萃分析提供了证据支持他汀类药物降低总PCa和临床重要的晚期PCa风险的假设。需要进一步的研究来证实这些发现,并确定潜在的生物学机制。
Emerging evidence suggests that statins may decrease the risk of cancers. However, available evidence on prostate cancer (PCa) is conflicting. We therefore examined the association between statin use and risk of PCa by conducting a detailed meta-analysis of all observational studies published regarding this subject. Literature search in PubMed database was undertaken through February 2012 looking for observational studies evaluating the association between statin use and risk of PCa. Before meta-analysis, the studies were evaluated for publication bias and heterogeneity. Pooled relative risk (RR) estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random-effects model (DerSimonian and Laird method). Subgroup analyses, sensitivity analysis and cumulative meta-analysis were also performed. A total of 27 (15 cohort and 12 case-control) studies contributed to the analysis. There was heterogeneity among the studies but no publication bias. Statin use significantly reduced the risk of both total PCa by 7% (RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.87–0.99, p = 0.03) and clinically important advanced PCa by 20% (RR 0.80, 95% CI 0.70–0.90, p<0.001). Long-term statin use did not significantly affect the risk of total PCa (RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.84–1.05, p = 0.31). Stratification by study design did not substantially influence the RR. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis confirmed the stability of results. Cumulative meta-analysis showed a change in trend of reporting risk from positive to negative in statin users between 1993 and 2011. Our meta-analysis provides evidence supporting the hypothesis that statins reduce the risk of both total PCa and clinically important advanced PCa. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and to identify the underlying biological mechanisms.
