Resumen

Avaliar o efeito da proteína de soja isolada contendo isoflavonas sobre os níveis de lipídeos séricos em mulheres
adultas através de uma metanálise. Realizou-se uma busca sistemática de artigos nos bancos de dados Cochrane
Library, MedLine e Web of Science databases. Foram selecionados somente ensaios clínicos randomizados que
apresentavam os seguintes critérios: desenho do estudo paralelo ou crossover, publicados entre 1966 e 2005,
sujeitos do sexo feminino, especificação da quantidade administrada de proteína de soja isolada contendo
isoflavonas. Após criteriosa seleção e análise da qualidade dos estudos, conduziu-se uma metanálise incluindo
13 ensaios clínicos randomizados. O efeito do consumo de proteína de soja isolada sobre os níveis de lipídeos
séricos foi calculado utilizando-se os modelos de efeito fixo e efeitos aleatórios. Realizou-se análise em subgrupos
para avaliar a influência de covariáveis sobre alterações dos níveis de lipídeos sanguíneos. A metanálise mostrou
que o consumo de proteína de soja isolada está associado à diminuição do colesterol-total (-5,34mg/dL, ou
2.4%, p=0,03). Não se encontraram alterações significativas ao avaliar o lipoproteina de baixa densidade-
-colesterol, os triglicerídeos e o lipoproteina de alta densidade-colesterol. O consumo de proteína de soja
isolada, em quantidades maiores ou iguais a 40g/dia, reduziu os níveis de colesterol-total em 6,56mg/dl (95%
IC: -12,35 a 0,39, p=0,04). Os achados sugerem efeitos estatisticamente significativos de pequena magnitude
sobre os níveis de lipídeos séricos em mulheres, mas clinicamente insignificativos. Além disso, não foram
encontrados efeitos estatisticamente significativos sobre a concentração sérica de lipoproteina de baixa
densidade-colesterol, lipoproteina de alta densidade-colesterol ou triglicerídios.
