• This summary is based on the review of nine systematic review(s)/meta-analysis(es). ^[1-9]
• HRS-AKI Reversal and Short-term Survival (Meta-analysis of 7 RCTs, 376 subjects): Terlipressin showed higher rates of HRS reversal (Odds Ratio (OR) 1.33, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) [0.80-2.22]; P = 0.22) and short-term survival (OR 1.50, 95% CI [0.64-3.53]; P = 0.26) compared to norepinephrine, though results were not statistically significant.
• AKI in Perioperative Transplant Period (Systematic Review of 9 studies, 711 patients): Terlipressin reduced AKI risk (0.6 [95% CI, 0.44-0.8]; P = 0.001), but this was not significant in sensitivity analysis (0.7 [0.43-1.09]; P = 0.11). Other outcomes, such as mortality and duration of hospital stay, showed no significant differences.
• Septic Shock (Systematic Review of 9 studies, 850 participants): No significant difference in overall mortality (Risk Ratio (RR) 0.85 [0.70-1.03]; P = 0.09), but terlipressin reduced mortality in patients younger than 60 years (RR 0.66 [0.50-0.86]; P = 0.002).
• In a meta-analysis of 7 RCTs for HRS-AKI, serious adverse events leading to discontinuation occurred in 5.3% of patients receiving terlipressin compared to 2.7% of those on norepinephrine. Common adverse events included abdominal pain and diarrhea for terlipressin, while norepinephrine was associated with cardiovascular events such as chest pain and ischemia.
• In a systematic review of septic shock studies, there was no significant difference in total adverse events between terlipressin and other drugs (OR 1.48 [0.51-4.24]; P = 0.47), though terlipressin was linked to a higher occurrence of peripheral ischemia (OR 8.65 [1.48-50.59]; P = 0.02).
• There is no population types or subgroups information available in the reviewed documents.
