Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the efficacy of Compound xuanju capsules combined with chemical medicine versus chemical medicine alone in the treatment of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), in order to provide evidence-based medicine guidelines for clinical medication. METHODS: Retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, CBM, VIP, CJFD and Wanfang database from database establishment to Apr. 5, 2019, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about therapeutic efficacy (total response rate, ovulation rate, pregnancy rate, FSH level, LH level, testosterone level, degree of endometrial thickening) of Compound xuanju capsules combined with chemical medicine (trial group) versus chemical medicine alone (control group) in the treatment of PCOS were collected. After data extraction and quality evaluation of included studies with modified Jadad scale, Meta-analysis was conducted by using STATA 14.0 software. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was conducted by using TSA 0.9 software. RESULTS: A total of 15 RCTs were included, involving 1 259 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that the total response rate [RR=1.27,95%CI(1.13,1.44),P<0.001], ovulation rate [RR=1.18,95%CI(1.03,1.37),P<0.001], pregnancy rate [RR=1.34,95%CI(1.11,1.61),P<0.001], serum hormone level {FSH [SMD=-0.66,95%CI (-0.51, -0.82),P<0.001], 95%CI(-1.76,-1.41),P<0.001], LH [SMD=-1.24,95%CI(-1.39, -1.08),P<0.001], testosterone [SMD=-1.59,95%CI(-1.76,-1.41),P<0.001]} and endometrial thickness [SMD=1.20,95%CI(1.04,1.37),P<0.001] of the trial group were better than those of the control group, with statistical significance. The results of TSA were reliable. CONCLUSIONS: In the treatment of PCOS, Compound xuanju capsules combined with chemical medicine is better than chemical medicine alone in improving total response rate, pregnancy rate, ovulation rate and endometrial thickness, and reducing serum hormone levels.
