Resumo
A Síndrome da Dor Pélvica Crônica (SDPC) é uma nova categoria na classificação atual das prostatites. A causa da SDPC é desconhecida, a teoria mais aceita é o refluxo intraprostático. Não há estudo que comprove qual o melhor tratamento. A finasterida, uma das drogas utilizadas para o tratamento, é um antiandrogênio que bloqueia a enzima 5-alfa redutase, diminuindo o tamanho da próstata. A finasterida agiria na SDPC reduzindo o tecido glandular prostático, diminuindo a tensão intraprostática e conseqüentemente o refluxo intraprostático. Avaliar a efetividade e a segurança da finasterida no tratamento da SDPC. Uma revisão sistemática de ensaios clínicos aleatorizados foi realizada, sem restrições de língua, datas ou outras considerações. As fontes de informação utilizadas foram Medline, Registro de Ensaios Controlados da Cochrane, Embase, Lilacs e SciELO. Contato com autores de artigos, laboratórios que comercializam finasterida e revistas médicas em geral e específicas. Foram incluídos pacientes com diagnóstico da SDPC tipo IIIA e/ou IIIB, participantes de estudos em que foi comparado o uso da finasterida com placebo ou outro tipo de tratamento. Os desfechos clínicos avaliados foram os questionários dos sintomas prostáticos, exames para avaliar a melhora bioquímica ou variável fisiológica e eventos adversos. A coleta de dados e análise foram realizadas por dois revisores que inspecionaram as referências encontradas independentemente pela estratégia de busca e aplicaram os critérios de inclusão nos estudos selecionados usando os critérios de qualidade metodológica descritos no Cochrane handbook. A escala de Jadad e Schutz também foram usadas. Os dados dos estudos elegíveis foram sumarizados em metanálise. A análise estatística foi realizada utilizando o...
Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS) is a new category in the current classification of prostatitis. The cause of CPPS is unknown; the most accepted theory is intraprostatic ductal reflux. The best treatment is not known. Finasteride, a specific type II 5a-reductase inhibitor, decreases the size of the prostate. A potential mechanism of action for finasteride is the reduction of the intraprostatic tension due to the glandular shrinkage, decreasing the intraprostatic ductal reflux. To assess the effectiveness and harms of finasteride in the treatment of CPPS. A systematic review of randomized controlled trials was performed, with no restrictions on language, dates or other considerations. The information sources used were Medline, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, Lilacs and SciELO; contact authors of articles, laboratories that work with finasteride and general and specific medical magazines. It included participants with a diagnosis of CPPS type IIIA and/or IIIB taking part of studies comparing the use of finasteride to placebo or another type of treatment. The clinical outcomes evaluated were the questionnaires of prostatic symptoms, improvement in biochemical or physiologic variables and adverse events. The collecting data and analysis were performed by two reviewers that checked the found references independently by the search strategy, and applied the inclusion criteria in the selected studies using the criteria of methodological quality described on Cochrane Handbook. The Jadad and the Schutz scales were also used. After finding all eligible studies, the data were summarized in meta-analysis. The statistical analysis was undertaken using the MetaView statistical program within Review Manager software of the Cochrane Collaboration. Three studies with 181 patients were included.
