Abstract
CD40 and its ligand have been recently implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). This meta-analysis examined the effect of bariatric surgery in reducing circulating CD40L levels. A systematic review was performed using Embase, Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. The meta-analysis was provided by Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) V4 software. The overall effect size was detected by a random-effects meta-analysis and the leave-one-out approach. Random-effects meta-analysis of 7 studies including 191 subjects showed a significant reduction in CD40L after bariatric surgery (standardized mean difference (SMD), − 0.531; 95% CI, − 0.981, − 0.082; p = 0.021; I2, 87.00). Circulating levels of CD40L are decreased after bariatric surgery which may represent a mechanism for improvement of metabolic profile.
