OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate therapeutic efficacy of Yanhuning injection in the treatment of epidemic mumps,explore valid way of evidence-based review,provide reference for the selection of new essential medicine list. METH-ODS:Retrieved from PubMed,CJFD,Wanfang database and VIP,randomized controlled trials(RCTs)about Yanhuning injection alone or combined with other positive drugs(trial group)vs. other positive drugs(control group)in the treatment of epidemic mumps. Meta-analysis was conducted by using Rev Man 5.3 statistical software after quality evaluation by modified Jadad scale. RE-SULTS:Totally 26 RCTs were included,involving 2613 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed,overall response rate [OR=5.28,95%CI(3.92,7.11),P<0.001] of trial group was significantly higher than that of control group;defervescence time [MD=-1.97,95%CI(-2.83,-1.12),P<0.001],swelling disappearance time [MD=-2.05,95%CI(-2.53,-1.58),P<0.001] and pain disappearance time [MD=-1.39,95%CI(-2.02,-0.75),P<0.001] of trial group were significantly shorter than those of control group,there was statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS:Yanhuning injection has good curative effect for epidemic mumps,and can significantly shorten defervescence time,swelling disappearance time and pain disappearance time.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the selection of new edition of Essential Medicine List by quantitative com-prehensive evaluation for additional essential medicine. METHODS:The evaluation factors were established according to Delphi method,and Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP)was conducted to compare the factors in pairs,construct the judgment matrix,cal-culate the weight coefficients of every factor and do the consistency test. RESULTS:The evaluation model was composed of 6 first-class indexes(including effectiveness,safety,stability,availability,affordability and adaptability)and 24 second-class index-es,and the weight of each index to the target layer was calculated. Among them,the weight of validity and security is the top two. CONCLUSIONS:The weight coefficient can be determined scientifically and reasonably by AHP,and the reliability and operability of the evaluation index system can be improved. It is a useful attempt to explore the selection system of additional essential medi-cine.
