ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of proton pump inhibitor (PPI)plus prokinetic drug on the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflex .Methods According to predetermined criteria of inclusion and exclu-sion ,Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trails(CENTRAL) ,Embase ,Elsevier ,Pubmed ,VIP ,Wanfang Data , CNKI and CBM were searched for the randomized controlled trails of proton pump inhibitor and prokinetic drug on the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflex diseases from the date of establishment of the datebases to November 2012 .Revman 5 .1 software and GRAED profiler 3 .6 software were applied to analysis the data ,which was extrac-ted by three independent evaluators .Results A total of 346 related articles were obtained ,7 trails were included , 614 patients in total .The results of Meta -analysis showed that :the overall effictive rate of combination therapy with proton pump inhibitors plus prokinetic drug in patients with laryngopharyngeal reflex was higher than those in the control group [RR=1 .18 ,95% CI(1 .10 ,1 .28) ,P<0 .0001] .The rate of improvement of laryngeal signs exam-ined by fiberoptic laryngoscope was higher than those in the control group [RR= 1 .38 ,95% CI(1 .16 ,1 .65) ,P<0 .001] .The average relief time of dysphonia symptoms was shorter than those in the control group [MD = -1 .70 , 95 CI (-2 .95 ,-0 .45) ,P<0 .001] .Conclusion The effect of proton pump inhibitor plus prokinetic drug on the treatment of laryngopharyngeal reflex is superior to those of proton pump inhibitors or prokinetic drug only ,but in terms of safety ,more large-sample ,high-quality randomized controlled trails are required .
