Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of probiotics on chemotherapy-induced intestinal mucositis in rats.Methods The databases including PubMed,EMbase,Cochrane,CBM,CNKI,WanFang and VIP were retrieved from their establishment to April 2016.The related randomized controlled trials(RCT) on the effects of probiotics for treating chemotherapy-induced intestinal mocositis in rats were included.The relevant literatures were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,then the data were extracted and analyzed.Results Total 6 RCT were included.Compared with the control group,the intestinal secretion and absorption function in the probiotics group was strengtnened[SMD=1.73,95 %CI(0.79,2.68),P<0.01],jejunal anti-oxidant capacity was increased [SMD=-2.12,95%CI(-3.56,-0.67),P<0.01],however low dose probiotics (<1 × 109 cfu/d)had no protective effect on small intestine[SMDjejunum =-0.06,95%CI(-0.51,0.40),SMDileum =0.02,95% CI(-0.71,0.75);P >0.05],while high dose probiotics(≥ 1 × 109 cfu/d) could reduce the intestinal pathological damage[SMDjejunum =-0.64,95 % CI (-1.20,-0.09),SMDileum=-0.85,95% CI(-1.59,-0.12);P<0.05].Conclusion High dose probiotics can reduce chemotherapy-induced intestinal mucositis in rats.Because of less included literatures and the influence of publication bias,the effect of probiotics on chemotherapy induced mucositis could be overestimated.
