Abstract

Vascular function serves as a prognostic marker for cardiovascular disease and may exhibit seasonal variations due to lifestyle and environmental factors. Our systematic review aimed to determine whether seasonal variations in vascular function are present. We conducted a search of five databases (MEDLINE via PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Biomed Central) to identify evidence of seasonal variations in vascular function. Studies were eligible for inclusion if they assessed vascular function in adult humans during two or more seasons and were published in English. Of the 20,420 studies screened, 12 were eligible and none were excluded due to bias. Nine studies reported significant seasonal variations in vascular function, whereas three studies found no significant seasonal variations. The seasonality of vascular function remains unclear. However, current literature indicates that vascular dysfunction may exhibit a seasonal pattern, with vascular function reduced in the winter. Seasonal variations in endothelial function necessitate further exploration, particularly concerning factors such as exercise, temperature, light exposure, and air pollution. Future research should adopt standardised protocols, involve diverse and larger populations, employ longitudinal designs to minimise confounding factors, systematically measure and adjust for environmental variables, and accurately assess the impact of seasonal variation on vascular function.

血管功能的季节性变化:系统综述和未来研究建议。
血管功能是心血管疾病的预后标志,可能会因生活方式和环境因素而出现季节性变化。我们的系统综述旨在确定血管功能是否存在季节性变化。我们对五个数据库(MEDLINE via PubMed、CINAHL、Web of Science、Cochrane Library 和 Biomed Central)进行了检索,以确定血管功能季节性变化的证据。只要是在两个或两个以上季节对成年人的血管功能进行评估的研究,且以英语发表,就有资格被纳入。在筛选出的 20,420 项研究中,有 12 项符合条件,没有一项因偏差而被排除。九项研究报告称血管功能存在明显的季节性变化,而三项研究则未发现明显的季节性变化。血管功能的季节性仍不明确。不过,目前的文献表明,血管功能障碍可能呈现季节性模式,血管功能在冬季会减弱。有必要对血管内皮功能的季节性变化进行进一步研究,尤其是与运动、温度、光照和空气污染等因素有关的研究。未来的研究应采用标准化方案,涉及更多不同人群,采用纵向设计以尽量减少混杂因素,系统测量和调整环境变量,并准确评估季节变化对血管功能的影响。

期刊介绍: International Journal of Environmental Health Research ( IJEHR ) is devoted to the rapid publication of research in environmental health, acting as a link between the diverse research communities and practitioners in environmental health. Published articles encompass original research papers, technical notes and review articles. IJEHR publishes articles on all aspects of the interaction between the environment and human health. This interaction can broadly be divided into three areas: the natural environment and health – health implications and monitoring of air, water and soil pollutants and pollution and health improvements and air, water and soil quality standards; the built environment and health – occupational health and safety, exposure limits, monitoring and control of pollutants in the workplace, and standards of health; and communicable diseases – disease spread, control and prevention, food hygiene and control, and health aspects of rodents and insects. IJEHR is published in association with the International Federation of Environmental Health and includes news from the Federation of international meetings, courses and environmental health issues.
