Effect of potassium-competitive acid blockers on human gut microbiota: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Vonoprazan has been reported to exert more potent and long-lasting gastric acid inhibition than proton pump inhibitors, potentially leading to a greater impact on the gut microbiota. This study aimed to clarify changes in microbial diversity and bacterial composition after VPZ treatments. Methods: We searched from PubMed, Embase, WOS, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and ClinicalTrials.gov (all years up to May 2023). The primary outcomes were alpha and beta diversity, as well as differences in gut microbiota composition between before and after VPZ treatments. We performed a meta-analysis to uncover the potential changes in human gut microbiota among VPZ users by pooled mean difference (MD) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). The risk of bias was assessed using t
