Abstract:
ObjectiveTo compare the therapeutic effects of oral Chinese medicines (including Chinese patent medicines) on coronary artery disease (CAD) by the Bayesian network Meta-analysis. MethodThe randomized controlled trials of treating CAD with oral Chinese medicines were retrieved from the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library from the inception to December 1, 2022. The Cochrane risk of bias assessment tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included articles. The direct meta-analysis was performed to compare the performance of oral Chinese medicines alone and in combination with Western medicine in the treatment of CAD in terms of intima-media thickness (IMT), vascular endothelial function, plaque score, hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and total response rate. Furthermore, the Bayesian network Meta-analysis was performed to compare the therapeutic effects of different Chinese medicines. ResultA total of 41 articles were included. The direct meta-analysis results showed that Chinese medicines combined with Western medicine outperformed Western medicine alone in recovering all the indicators of CAD. The Bayesian network meta-analysis yielded the following results. In terms of the total response rate, modified Huangqi Guizhi Wuwutang and Sanqi Huayu pills had obvious advantages over other Chinese medicines. In terms of IMT and plaque score, Xiaoban Huazhuo decoction, Yiqi Tongluo formula, Ruangan Jiangzhi capsules, and Guanxin Shutong capsules had obvious advantages over other Chinese medicines. In terms of blood lipid indicators, Shenqi Roumai mixture, Ruangan Jiangzhi capsules, Xiaoban Huazhuo decoction, Qiwei Sanxiong decoction, and Sanqi Huayu pills were superior to other Chinese medicines. The Chinese medicines above mainly had the functions of activating blood, resolving stasis, resolving phlegm, and dredging vessels. ConclusionThe combination of oral Chinese medicines and Western medicine is effective in treating CAD. Clinicians can use the drugs targeting abnormal indicators according to the results of this Bayesian network meta-analysis combined with the actual situation of patients to achieve better therapeutic effects.
