BACKGROUND: Chronic diseases such as obesity, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome are major health concerns worldwide. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) is a bile acid that is naturally produced in the liver and has been used for the treatment of various liver disorders. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigated how UDCA might affect inflammation, blood pressure, and obesity. METHODS: Five major databases were searched from inception to August 2024. The investigated outcomes included body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). A random effect was carried out to estimate pooled weighted mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). The registration code is CRD42023428064. RESULTS: Of the 7912 articles in the initial search, 12 were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. UDCA consumption significantly decreased BMI (WMD: -0.29 kg/m CONCLUSION: This systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that UDCA supplementation may improve BMI and DBP, whereas it may increase SBP and have no effect on weight or inflammation. Further long-term and well-designed RCTs are needed to further assess and confirm these results.
