Background: Metabolic syndrome, a significant risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in patients with end-stage renal disease, profoundly impacts patient prognosis and survival. Despite its clinical importance, the prevalence of metabolic syndrome remains unexplored in this population. Therefore, the objective of this study was to systematically assess the prevalence of metabolic syndrome among patients with end-stage renal disease and raise awareness among healthcare professionals. Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search in CNKI, WANFANG, WeiPu, CBM, PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and The Cochrane Library databases. The search time was until August 21, 2023. Standardized tables were employed for data extraction and imported into Stata 16.0 software for subsequent meta-analysis. A random-effects model was employed to estimate combined prevalence and 95% confidence intervals. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses were conducted to explore potential sources of heterogeneity, while publication bias was evaluated using a funnel plot and Egger's test. This study has been registered with PROSPERO under the registration number CRD42023456284. Results: This meta-analysis comprised 35 studies involving a total of 14,202 participants. The pooled prevalence estimate for metabolic syndrome was 49.0% [95% CI (46.0,53.0)]. We conducted subgroup analyses based on participant characteristics, gender distribution, publication year, national economic status, diagnostic criteria employed, and components of metabolic syndrome. Conclusions: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome is higher among patients with end-stage renal disease, necessitating early prevention and control measures to reduce its incidence and delay the progression of the disease, thereby improving patient life expectancy.
