Abstract
CONTEXT
All types of caloric restriction are preventive against cardiovascular risk factors, but the best restriction method and most affected factors have not been identified.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to explore the effects of different caloric restriction methods on various cardiovascular risk factors by horizontally comparing program advantages and disadvantages via network meta-analysis.
DATA SOURCES
The PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase literature databases were searched (October 2013 to October 2023).
DATA EXTRACTION
Eligible randomized controlled trials involving participants who underwent caloric restriction and systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body mass index (BMI), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol level measurements were included.
DATA ANALYSIS
Thirty-six of 13 208 records (0.27%) were included. Two researchers reviewed the articles, extracted data, and assessed article quality.
RESULTS
Alternate-day fasting (ADF) reduced SBP (4.88 mmHg; CI, 2.06-7.15) and DBP (5.10 mmHg; CI, 2.44-7.76). Time-restricted eating reduced SBP (2.46 mmHg; CI, 0.16-4.76) but not DBP. Continuous energy restriction (CER) significantly reduced BMI (1.11 kg/m2; CI = 0.16, 2.06) and waist circumference (3.28 cm; CI, 0.62-5.94).
CONCLUSIONS
This meta-analysis confirmed the preventive effect of CER and ADF on various cardiovascular risk factors. Additionally, CER is more likely to reduce obesity, and ADF is more likely to reduce blood pressure (BP). Based on this meta-analysis, CER is recommended to control obesity only for people who are obese and do not have elevated BP or other abnormal indicators. Additionally, ADF for early control or prevention is recommended for patients who have abnormal BP or other cardiovascular risk factors.
