Efekti liječenja olanzapinom na lipidne profile kod pacijenata sa šizofrenijom: sistematski pregled i meta-analiza.

Effects of olanzapine treatment on lipid profiles in patients with schizophrenia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Olanzapine-induced dyslipidemia significantly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with schizophrenia. However, the clinical features of olanzapine-induced dyslipidemia remain hitherto unclear because of inconsistencies in the literature. This meta-analysis thus investigated the effects of olanzapine treatment on lipid profiles among patients with schizophrenia. Studies of the effects of olanzapine on lipids were obtained through the PubMed, Web of science, The Cochrane Library and Embase databases (up to January 1, 2020). Twenty-one studies and 1790 schizophrenia patients who received olanzapine therapy were included in our analysis. An olanzapine-induced increase was observed in plasma triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels in patients with schizophrenia (all P 0.05). In conclusion, olanzapine-induced dyslipidemia, characterized by increased TG, TC, and LDL-C levels, was observed in patients with schizophrenia already by 4 weeks of olanzapine treatment.
