Associations of Blood Lipids with the Risk and Prognosis of Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss: A Meta-analysis

Description
Summary:Bacground: Patients with sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) may lose their hearing. The relationship between SSNHL and total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels is still unclear. The association of TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C levels with the risk and prognosis of SSNHL was explored in this study. Methods: After searching for literature in different databases, 13 researches were used to summarize the risk and prognosis of SSNHL associations with TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C using meta-analysis. Results: Total cholesterol had a significant association with the risk of SSNHL (95% CI, 1.34-2.91). Adjustment for confounding factors and grouping criteria of TG were all significant sources of heterogeneity. One of the significant sources of heterogeneity in the LDL-C subgroup analyses was an adjustment for confounders. Sensitivity analysis revealed a robust association between TC and the risk of SSNHL. There was a significant publication bias in the association between TC and SSNHL prognosis Conclusion: High TC level is a risk factor for SSNHL.
