Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of compound glycyrrhizin combined with tripterygium wilfordii polyglycosides for psoriasis.Methods:Literature search was conducted in CNKI, Wanfang, VIP databases, Sinomed, PubMed, the Cochrane Library and Embase with the deadline of September 28th, 2020. The randomly controlled trials of compound glycyrrhizin combined with tripterygium wilfordii polyglycosides in treating psoriasis was included. The publication bias and methodology quality of RCTs were evaluated according to the Cochrane 5.0.1 bias risk assessment method. The RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta analysis.Results:Ten studies with 961 patients were included, with the experimental group ( n=486) and the control group ( n=475). The results of meta-analysis showed that the total effective rate [ OR=3.16, 95% CI (2.00-4.99), P<0.001], the cure rate [ OR=2.56, 95% CI (1.94-3.61), P<0.001], the recurrence rate [ OR=0.15, 95% CI (0.04-0.60), P=0.007], the total incidence of adverse reactions [ OR=0.53, 95% CI (0.34-0.82), P=0.004], the incidence of abnormal liver function [ OR=0.17, 95% CI (0.06-0.47), P=0.001] in the experimental group were better than those in the control group. There was no significant difference on the incidence of adverse reactions of digestive tract ( P>0.05) or lower extremity or facial edema ( P>0.05) between both groups. Conclusions:Compound glycyrrhizin combined with tripterygium wilfordii polyglycosides is effective in the treatment of psoriasis than tripterygium wilfordii polyglycosides alone, and can reduce the recurrence rate and the incidence of adverse reactions. However, a large number of large samples and high-quality studies are still needed.
