【Abstract】Objective To systematically evaluate the relationship of different types of obesity with dyslipidemia in Chinese elderly population over 60 years old. Methods The studies concerning the relationship of obesity and dyslipidemia were retrieved in available Chinese and English databases, and the literatures meeting our inclusion criteria were enrolled, and then quantitative meta-analysis was performed to study the relationship. Results There were 19 cross-sectional studies enrolled in this study, containing totally 63 844 aged people. Random effects model was used because of the considerably high heterogeneity (I²>50%). Compared with the people with normal body mass index (BMI), the multivariate pooled OR was 1.92 (95%CI:1.21-3.05) and 2.13 (95%CI:1.41-3.22) respectively for the overweight and obese people. And the risk of dyslipidemia was significantly higher in the elderly with central obesity than those with normal waist circumference (OR=2.00,5%CI:1.47-2.72). Conclusion Obesity will significantly increase the risk of dyslipidemia in the Chinese elderly population, and more clinical attention should be paid to the problem.
