Abstract:
Network Meta-analysis was employed to compare the efficacy of Chinese medicine injections for activating blood and resolving stasis combined with conventional western medicine in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke and the effects on platelet aggregation rate, fibrinogen(FIB), and hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP), with a view to providing evidence-based medicine reference for clinical medication. CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and EMbase were searched for randomized controlled trial(RCT) on the treatment of acute ischemic stroke with Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection, Danhong Injection, Shuxuetong Injection, Xueshuantong Injection, Shuxuening Injection, Safflower Yellow Pigment Injection, and Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection combined with conventional western medicine. The retrieval time was from database inception to March 18, 2023. The articles were extracted by two researchers and their quality was evaluated. R 4.2.2 was used for network Meta-analysis. A total of 87 RCTs involving 8 580 patients were included. Network Meta-analysis showed that, in terms of reducing National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS) scores, the surface under the cumulative ranking curve(SUCRA) showed the order of Xueshuantong Injection + conventional western medicine(88.7%) > Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine(73.7%) > Shuxuetong Injection + conventional western medicine(69.7%) > Shuxuening Injection + conventional western medicine(51.8%) > Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine(43.7%) > Safflower Yellow Pigment Injection + conventional western medicine(36.8%) > Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection + conventional western medicine(35.3%) > conventional western medicine(1.7%). In terms of improving clinical total effective rate, SUCRA showed the order of Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine(63.0%) > Shuxuening Injection + conventional western medicine(59.0%) > Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine(58.9%) > Safflower Yellow Pigment Injection + conventional western medicine(57.1%) > Xueshuantong Injection + conventional western medicine(56.8%) > Shuxuetong Injection + conventional western medicine(54.6%) > Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection + conventional western medicine(50.5%) > conventional western medicine(0.03%). In terms of improving Barthel index, SUCRA showed the order of Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine(84.7%) > Shuxuetong Injection + conventional western medicine(72.4%) > Safflower Yellow Pigment Injection + conventional western medicine(61.6%) > Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine(44.6%) > Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection + conventional western medicine(43.2%) > Shuxuening Injection + conventional western medicine(42.2%) > conventional western medicine(1.4%). In terms of reducing platelet aggregation rate, SUCRA showed the order of Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine(82.4%) > Shuxuetong Injection + conventional western medicine(81.6%) > Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection + conventional western medicine(40.7%) > Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine(37.3%) > conventional western medicine(8.0%). In terms of reducing FIB, SUCRA showed the order of Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine(81.0%) > Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine(71.9%) > Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection + conventional western medicine(70.0%) > Shuxuetong Injection + conventional western medicine(46.7%) > Xueshuantong Injection + conventional western medicine(22.6%) > conventional western medicine(8.7%). In terms of reducing hs-CRP, SUCRA showed the order of Shuxuening Injection + conventional western medicine(89.9%) > Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine(78.8%) > Ginkgo Diterpene Lactone Meglumine Injection + conventional western medicine(52.4%) > Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine(47.6%) > Xueshuantong Injection + conventional western medicine(43.5%) > Shuxuetong Injection + conventional Western medicine(35.6%) > conventional western medicine(2.3%). The results indicated that Xueshuantong Injection + conventional western medicine, Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine, and Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine ranked the top three. Xueshuantong Injection + conventional western medicine had the best effect on reducing NIHSS scores. Danhong Injection + conventional western medicine showed the best performance of improving clinical total effective rate, improving Barthel index, and reducing FIB in the blood. Salvia Miltiorrhiza Ligustrazine Injection + conventional western medicine had the best effect on reducing platelet aggregation rate in the blood. Shuxuening Injection + conventional western medicine had the best effect on reducing hs-CRP. However, more high-quality RCTs are needed for verification in the future to provide more reliable evidence-based medical reference.
