A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Metabolic Syndrome Prevalence in Chinese Inpatients with Bipolar Disorder

Abstract

The aim of the work was to study the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Chinese patients with bipolar disorder. We searched Chinese literature related to the study in prevalence of metabolic syndrome in bipolar disorder in Chinese language, among which results such as comments, letters, reviews and case reports were excluded. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in bipolar disorder was researched and discussed. A total of 1562 subjects were included in 11 studies. The prevalence of MetS in bipolar disorder was 33% (95% CI=0.29–0.37), which was higher significantly than normal control (10.82%), but similar to schizophrenia (31.59%). The 41.41% prevalence of MetS in male patients was higher significantly than that in females (26.83%).The prevalence of MetS in BD treated by AAP was 47.54%, by MS was 19.19%, by MS+AAP was 40%.The prevalence of MetS in BD treated by carbamazepine was 28.21%, by lithium was 30%, by valproate was 21.71%, by clozepine was 51.43%, by olanzapine was 39.84%, by quetiapine was 39.44%, and by risperidone was 35%. The prevalence of MetS in bipolar disorder was 33% (95% CI=0.29–0.37), which was higher significantly than normal control (10.82%), but similar to schizophrenia (31.59%). AAP and MS were the main one risks of MetS in BD.
