Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of topical administration of phenytoin ( PHT) on wound healing. Methods:The clinical trials on PHT topically used for wound healing were collected from Cocharne Library and PubMed ( from database establish-ment to May, 2016. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5. 0 software and Stata 12. 0 software. Results:A total of 15 stud-ies involving 1 048 patients were included. Topical PHT treatment was significantly associated with complete healing rate (OR=3. 28, 95%CI:1. 23-8. 75, P=0. 02), production rate of health granulation tissue (OR=2. 18,95%CI:1. 33-3. 59, P=0. 002) and aver-age percentage reduction of wound surface size (SMD=1. 77, 95%CI:0. 53-3. 02, P<0. 000 01). However, heterogeneity existed in complete healing rate and average percentage reduction of wound surface size among the studies. Meta-regression analysis showed that wound types (P=0. 02) and treatment periods(P=0. 08) were associated with the heterogeneity of complete healing rate outcomes, and mean age was associated with the heterogeneity of average percentage reduction of wound surface size(P=0. 07). Conclusion:Meta-analysis suggests that topical PHT treatment has significant positive clinical effect on wound healing. There is heterogeneity among the studies, so topical PHT treatment still should be applied in clinical practice prudently.
