BACKGROUND: Primary antiphospholipid syndrome (PAPS) has been associated with an increase in clinical events associated with atherosclerotic vascular disease. Intima media thickness (IMT) of carotid arteries is a surrogate marker of atherosclerotic vascular disease.
OBJECTIVES: To conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies evaluating IMT and their clinical correlates in PAPS.
METHODS: Systematic search of EMBASE and PubMed databases from January 2000 to December 2023; we employed random effect meta-analyses for continuous outcomes and Peto's odds ratio for rare events.
RESULTS: The meta-analysis included 21 studies (20 case control and 1 cohort) showing that PAPS patients (n = 1103) had thicker IM than controls (n = 832) (p < 0.0001) with wide heterogeneity (I2 = 86.9 %); PAPS patients (n = 782) also had a greater pooled prevalence of carotid plaques than controls (n = 537) (13.1 % vs 2.97 %, p < 0.0001). A sensitivity analysis by meta-regression indicated that mean age, gender, disease duration, lipid profile, blood pressures, smoking and statin use all explained the heterogeneity variance; a sensitivity analysis by subgroups confirmed smoking status and statin use as explanatory variables with the addition of ethnicity.
CONCLUSION: Atherosclerosis of the carotid artery represents a clinical feature of PAPS in relation to the traditional risk factors and to statin use. Minimising the atherogenic risk with statins could reduce the late arterial atherothrombotic risks of PAPS.
