Objective To standardize the selection of clinical research outcome indicators,which can objectively evaluate the clinical efficacy or effect of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of myasthenia gravis.This study aims to standardize the construction of the core outcome set of clinical research of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of myasthenia gravis.Methods We followed the core outcome set development specification(COS-STAD)to carry out research,established a research working group,which set up a Delphi-method advisory group.Two graduate students of working group conducted a document research and meetings of patients to establishe an outcome set item pool of myasthenia gravis in clinical trials of Chinese medicine under the instruction of other members.With the questionnaire based on the content of item pool,we then carried out Delphi-method expert consultations and a consensus meeting.Results The core outcome set of clinical research on myasthenia gravis treated with traditional Chinese medicine included five outcome domains:endpoint outcome,myasthenia gravis symptom evaluation,medication evaluation,quality of life evaluation and safety outcome;Nine outcome measures:recurrence rate,incidence of hormone complications,incidence of crisis,QMGS scale(MGFA quantitative myasthenia gravis score),daily activity scale of MG patients(ADL),analysis of immunosuppressant dosage,analysis of glucocorticoid dosage,analysis of cholinesterase inhibitor dosage,and incidence of adverse events.Conclusion The five outcome domains and nine outcome measures included in the core outcome set can be used as outcome options for the efficacy evaluation of myasthenia gravis clinical research.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ozone injection therapy for lumbar disc hemiation(LDH).Methods A computerized retrieval of academic papers concerning the randomized controlled trial(RCT)on ozone injection therapy for LDH from the databases of Embase,PubMed,Cochrane library and Web of science was conducted.The retrieval time period was from the establishment of the database to February 2023.The literature retrieval,screening,and data extraction were independently performed by two researchers.Cochrane bias risk assessment tool was used to assess the quality of the included literature.Stata 17.0 software was used to make meta-analysis.Results A total of 9 RCTs including 702 patients were finally included in this study.The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with radiofrequency thermocoagulation,percutaneous rotation and other treatments for LDH,the combination use of ozone injection could signifiicantly improve the effective rate based on Macnab efficacy evaluation criteria(RR=1.097,95％CI:1.038～1.159,P=0.001)and the excellent rate(RR=1.185～95％CI:1.074～1.309,P=0.001),and decrease the visual analog scale(VAS)pain score(WMD=-0.810～95％CI:-1.205～-0.414,P=0.000),and the differences in the above indexes were statistically significant.Conclusion Compared with the simple use of radiofrequency thermocoagulation,percutaneous rotation,and other treatment for LDH,the combination use of ozone injection therapy can significantly improve the effective rate and excellent rate based on Macnab efficacy evaluation criteria,decrease VAS score,with a high clinical safety.Limited by the quantity and quality of the original studies included in this study,the above conclusions need to be further verified by multi-center,large-sample and high-quality studies.
