Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in critical hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD).Methods The data from PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, EBSChost, Cochrane Library, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid, China Biology Medicine disc, Wanfang Data, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chinese Citation Database, and other references and grey literatures were retrieved, screening out all those related to clinical trials on treating critical HFMD by IVIG.Standard methods of the Cochrane Collaboration were employed to evaluate the methodological quality of the trials.Meta analysis was performed with Rev man 5.3 software.Results Eleven trials including 967 cases were investigated.The meta analysis showed that IVIG had significantly clinical efficacy (OR =6.84,95% CI:3.74-12.52 ,P < 0.05).IVIG could significantly decrease duration of fever (MD =-1.94,95% CI:-3.07--0.81 ,P <0.05) ,hospitalization time (MD =-4.56,95% CI:-8.95--0.17,P <0.05).There was no significant difference in duration of fever (MD =-0.28,95 % CI:-0.59-0.03, P > 0.05), duration of herpes (MD =0.18,95% CI:-0.22-0.59, P > 0.05), hospitalization time (MD =-0.12,95% CI:-0.47-0.23, P > 0.05) when the dosage of injection was adjusted.Conclusions IVIG is recommended for treating critical HFMD because it is effective in decreasing the duration of fever and hospitalization.Well designed studies with more sample in multi-center are required in further study to explore the efficacy and safety of IVIG on critical HFMD.
