Abstract:
This study systematically evaluated the efficacy and safety of Ganshuang Granules in the treatment of liver injury, so as to provide a new choice for patients with liver injury. CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, SinoMed, Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, and Web of Science were systematically searched for the randomized controlled trial(RCT) of Ganshuang Granules in the treatment of liver injury. RevMan 5.4 was employed to perform the Meta-analysis of the included RCT according to the Cochrane Handbook 5.1. A total of 3 005 patients were included in 38 RCTs, including 1 536 patients in the observation group and 1 469 in the control group. The results of Meta-analysis showed that Ganshuang Granules combined with conventional therapy was superior to the therapy in the control group in reducing alanine aminotransferase(ALT)(MD=-24.12, 95%CI[-32.17,-16.07], P<0.000 01), aspartate aminotransferase(AST)(MD=-23.24, 95%CI[-29.70,-16.78], P<0.000 01), total bilirubin(TBiL)(MD=-12.42, 95%CI[-14.62,-10.22], P<0.000 01), and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase(GGT)(MD=-21.32, 95%CI[-33.61,-9.03], P=0.000 7). Compared with the control group, the observation group had witnessed a significant increase in albumin(ALB)(MD=4.94, 95%CI[4.44, 5.45], P<0.000 01). No significant adverse reactions were observed. According to the available data, Ganshuang Granules combined with conventional therapy can effectively recover the levels of ALT, AST, TBiL, GGT, and ALB in patients with liver injury. Nevertheless, high-quality RCT is still needed to further verify the findings of this study.
