Association between circulating CTRP9 levels and coronary artery disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

C1q tumor necrosis factor (TNF) related proteins 9 (CTRP9) is a novel adipocytokine that has been shown to have a cardioprotective effect in coronary artery disease (CAD). However, there are conflicting results on circulating levels of CTRP9 in patients with and without CAD. This meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the association between circulating CTRP9 levels and CAD.

Objective

The aim of this meta-analysis was to re-examine the relationship between circulating CTRP9 levels and CAD.

Methods

We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, and CBM for relevant studies up to October 2023, and 193 articles were identified. After reading the title, abstract and full text, a total of 25 articles were included in t
