Abstract:
ObjectiveTo systematically review the clinical of artificial liver support system (ALSS) in the treatment of drug-induced liver failure. MethodsPubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, CMB, CNKI, and VIP databases were searched for related randomized controlled trials or randomized controlled trials on ALSS in the treatment of drug-induced liver failure published up to October 2019, and a statistical analysis was performed. Odds ratio (OR) was the effect size for categorical data, and the difference between groups was the effect size for continuous data. The weighted mean difference (WMD) method was used for the pooled analysis of effect size, and 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated for each effect size. I2 and P values were used to evaluate the heterogeneity of the articles included in the analysis; a fixed effect model was used when I2<50% and P>0.1, otherwise a random effects model was used. ResultsA total of 16 articles with 945 patients were included, with 520 patients in the ALSS+routine medical treatment (RMT) group and 425 in the RMT group. The meta-analysis showed that compared with the RMT group, the ALSS+RMT group had a significantly lower mortality rate of drug-induced liver failure (OR=0.27, 95%CI: 0.20-0.36, P<0.001), significant improvements in albumin (Alb) (MD=1.21, 95%CI: 0.18-2.25, P=0.02) and prothrombin activity (PTA) (MD=11.84, 95%CI: 6.34-17.35, P<0.001), and a significant reduction in total bilirubin (TBil) (MD=-104.97, 95%CI: -163.63 to -46.30, P<0.001). Further analysis of Alb, TBil, and PTA after the withdrawal of ALSS showed that ALSS significantly improved Alb (MD=1.74, 95%CI: 1.20-2.27, P<0.001) and PTA (MD=4.45, 95%CI: 2.80-6.10, P<0.001) and significantly reduced TBil (MD=-128.41, 95%CI: -217.22 to -39.59, P=0.005). ConclusionCompared with RMT alone, RMT combined with ALSS can significantly improve the main biochemical indicators of patients with drug-induced liver failure and reduce their mortality rate.
