Egg consumption and risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes: A meta-analysis
Atherosclerosis, 05/08/2013  Evidence Based Medicine  Review Article

Li Y et al. – The aim of this study is to assess the dose–response relationship between egg consumption and the risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes. This study suggests that there is a dose–response positive association between egg consumption and the risk of CVD and diabetes.
Methods

• The authors systematically searched MEDLINE database through December 2012.
• Fixed– or random–effects model was used to pool the relative risks (RRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
• Subgroup analyses was performed to explore the potential sources of heterogeneity.
• Weighted linear regression model was used to estimate the dose–response relationship.
• Fourteen studies involving 320,778 subjects were included.

Results

• The pooled RRs of the risk of CVD, CVD for separated diabetes patients, and diabetes for the highest vs lowest egg intake were 1.19 (95% CI 1.02–1.38), 1.83 (95% CI 1.42–2.37), 1.68 (95% CI 1.41–2.00), respectively.
• For each 4/week increment in egg intake, the RRs of the risk for CVD, CVD for separated diabetes patients, diabetes was 1.06 (95% CI 1.03–1.10), 1.40 (95% CI 1.25–1.57), 1.29 (95% CI 1.21–1.37), respectively.
• Subgroup analyses showed that population in other western countries have increased CVD than ones in USA (RR 2.00, 95% CI 1.14 to 3.51 vs 1.13, 95% CI 0.98 to 1.30, P = 0.02 for subgroup difference).
