INTRODUCTION: Endothelial dysfunction has been implicated in various cardiovascular disorders as the initial pathology. Allopurinol has been shown to improve endothelial dysfunction in patients with gout, but its effect on cardiovascular patients is unclear.
AIMS: We aim to assess allopurinol efficacy in improving endothelial dysfunction overall and in different disease states including but not limited to heart failure, chronic kidney disease, ischemic heart disease METHODS: We conducted a literature search of PubMed, Cochrane's Central Library, and Scopus until December 2022, including randomized controlled trials and double-arm observational studies. The primary outcome measure was endothelial function assessed by change in flow mediated dilation (FMD) RESULTS: Our meta-analysis included 22 studies with a total of 1472 patients. Our pooled analysis shows that allopurinol significantly improved FMD (WMD = 1.46%, 95% CI [0.70, 2.22], p < 0.01) compared to control. However, there was no significant difference between allopurinol and control for endothelial-independent vasodilation measured by forearm blood flow (WMD = 0.10%, 95% CI [- 0.89, 0.69], p = 0.80). Subgroup analysis indicated that the effect of allopurinol on FMD was more significant in diabetic and congestive heart failure patients.
CONCLUSION: While allopurinol may improve endothelial function in various patient populations, further high-quality randomized controlled trials are needed to determine its efficacy in preventing cardiovascular disease exacerbation.
