Abstract

This study conducted a meta-analysis to analyze the efficacy and safety of osteoporosis medications in kidney transplant recipients and patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from the date of their inception through October 21, 2022. We performed a meta-analysis of the efficacy and safety of osteoporosis medications in adult patients with stage 3–5 CKD or kidney transplant recipients enrolled in randomized clinical trials (RCTs). We calculated the standard mean deviations with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for bone mineral density (BMD) and T scores after 6 and 12 months treatment, pooled odds ratio and 95% CI for fracture risk, and summarized adverse events. The inclusion criteria were met by 27 studies. Out of this, 19 studies were included for the meta-analysis. In stage 3–4 CKD patients, alendronate increased lumbar spine BMD. In patients at stage 5 CKD and undergoing hemodialysis, alendronate and raloxifene increased lumbar spine BMD. After 6 months, the BMD of kidney transplant recipients was seen to be significantly increased; however, there was no difference after 12 months, and the risk of fracture did not reduce. Thus, there is no evidence that these medications reduce the risk of fracture, and their effect on BMD and fracture remains unproven. These medications may increase the incidence of adverse events and their safety needs to be further evaluated. Therefore, we cannot draw a definitive conclusion about the efficacy and safety of osteoporosis medications in the above group of patients.
