Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficiency and safety between Aripiprazole and other traditional drugs for Tourette's syndrome treatment.Methods Databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Wanfang,VIP,China Biology Medicine Disc,PubMed and Web of Science were electronically searched for studies on Aripiprazole for Tourette's syndrome treatment.According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,studies,extracted data,and assessed quality were screened.Meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 11.0 software.Results Four studies about Aripiprazole for Tourette's syndrome treatment with 396 patients (Aripiprazole group:201 cases;control group:195 cases) were synthetically and quantitatively analyzed.Meta-analysis results showed that Aripiprazole was better than other traditional agents (placebo,Tiapride,Haloperidol) [standardized mean difference (SMD) =0.21,95% CI:0.10-0.32].The subgroup by time of treatment analysis results indicated that Aripiprazole was superior to other drugs in 2 weeks (SMD =0.28,95% CI:0.06-0.50).There was no significant difference in the efficacy between Aripiprazole and other drugs for treatment of Tourette's syndrome in 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment (SMD =0.16,0.28;95% CI:-0.05-0.38、-0.20-0.76).The subgroup by matched drugs results suggested that Aripiprazole was better than Tiapride (SMD =0.29,95 % CI:0.15-0.43),but was not significantly different from Haloperidol (SMD =-0.03,95% CI:-0.28-0.22).There was no significant difference in side effects incidence between Aripiprazole and traditional drugs for treatment of Tourette's syndrome (RR =0.83,95 % CI:0.36-1.89).Conclusions Compared with the conventional drugs,Aripiprazole has better therapeutic efficacy in the treatment of Tourette's syndrome in children in 2 weeks.Aripiprazole is better than Tiapride,but equal to Haloperidol in the treatment of Tourette's syndrome.The safety of Aripiprazole needs to be further verified.
