The safety and efficacy of tolvaptan in the treatment of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: The irreversible progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is delayed by tolvaptan. Therefore, we aim to systematically estimate and evaluate the efficacy and safety of tolvaptan in the treatment of ADPKD. Methods: Two reviewers independently searched all published randomized controlled trials studies in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane databases, extracted data, assessed bias risk and rated the quality of evidence. Data were analyzed by the RevMan software. Results: We identified 8 trials including 2135 patients. Both of the decline of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [MD = 1.89, 95% CI (0.74, 3.04), P = 0.001] and total kidney volume (TKV) [MD = −3.32, 95% CI (−4.57, −2.07), P
