Effectiveness and Safety of Chinese Medicinal Injection in Treatment of Unstable Angina Pectoris Based on Network Meta-analysis / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of Chinese medicinal injection （CMI） in the treatment of unstable angina pectoris （UAP）. MethodEight databases， i.e.， China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI），VIP，Wanfang Data，CBM，PubMed，EMBASE，The Cochrane Library，and Web of Science were searched for randomized controlled trials （RCT） of conventional treatment combined with CMI （treatment group） versus conventional treatment （CT）（control group）in the treatment of UAP published from database inception to March 31th 2021. Stata 16.0 was used for network Meta-analysis. ResultThirty-nine RCT involving 3 407 patients were included. As revealed by the results of network Meta-analysis， in terms of the total effective rate in angina pectoris improvement， the therapeutic protocols were ranked as Tanreqing injection（TRQI）+CT>Xiangdan injection（XDI）+CT>Ciwujia injection（CWJI）+CT=Shengmai injection（SMI）+CT>Xuesaitong injection（XSTS）+CT>Breviscapine injection（BI）+CT>Shuxuetong injection（SXTI）+CT>Kudiezi injection（KDZI）+CT>Shuxuening injection（SXNI）+CT>Danshen injection （DSI）+CT>Guanxinning injection（GXNI）+CT>Dengzhanxixin injection（DZXXI）+CT>Xueshuantong injection（XSTI）+CT>Gualoupi injection（GLPI）+CT>CT；for the total effective rate in ECG improvement， SXTI+CT>XDI+CT>TRQI+CT>CWJI+CT>XSTI+CT>BI+CT>XSTI+CT>SXNI+CT>GXNI+CT>KDZI+CT>DZXXI+CT>GLPI+CT>CT>SMI+CT；for the adverse reactions， DZXXI+CT>XDI+CT>DSI+CT>BI+CT>SMI+CT>SXNI+CT>CT>GLPI+CT>GXNI+CT>SXTI+CT>KDZI+CT>CWJI+CT；for the reduction of fibrinogen （FIB）， BI+CT>SXTI+CT>XSTI+CT>CT>KDZI+CT；for the reduction of C-reactive protein （CRP）， DSI+CT>DZXXI+CT>XSTI+CT>CT；for the reduction of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein （hs-CRP）， SXNI+CT>KDZI+CT>SXTI+CT>DZXXI+CT>GLPI+CT>TRQI+CT>XSTI+CT>CT. The results of subgroup analyses were consistent with those of the overall Meta-analysis. ConclusionCMI combined with CT can improve angina pectoris and ECG，reduce adverse reactions，and also improve FIB，CRP，and hs-CRP to varying degrees. However，due to the differences in the quality and quantity of CMIs in RCTs，clinical application should be performed based on the specific conditions.
