Abstract

Introduction: The prevalence of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) increased to 40% in men over 40 and then to about 80% in men over 70. Prior research has demonstrated a correlation between inflammatory processes in the development of Benign Prostatic Enlargement (BPE), Lower Urinary Tract Syndrome (LUTS), and coronary artery disease (CAD) and symptoms of atherosclerotic illness, such as dyslipidemia, hypertension, and non-insulin-dependent diabetic mellitus. Objective: In this study, we would like to review studies regarding the relationship between BPH and CAD. Material & Methods: This study was a combination of systematic review followed by a meta-regression analysis. Performed on PubMed and Google Scholar. Randomized controlled trials, prospective and retrospective cohort studies were included in the study. The search was performed in English and was limited to articles published between January 1st, 2000 until October 31st, 2023. Results: Database search yielded a total of 103 articles, which were systematically eliminated, leaving 7 relevant articles. Analyzed articles showed a significant relationship between BPH and CAD. CAD was proven to be significantly able to provide a higher risk on BPH by 2.99 times compared to control. Conclusion: Compared to individuals without BPH, there was a substantial correlation between CAD and BPH patients. Keywords: Benign prostate hyperplasia, coronary artery disease, lower-urinary tract syndrome, systemic review.
