Network Meta-analysis was performed to systematically compare the efficacy of different Chinese patent medicines for activating blood and resolving stasis in the treatment of endometriosis and to provide evidence-based references for clinical medication regimens. The relevant randomized controlled trials(RCTs) involving Chinese patent medicines combined with conventional treatment(experimental group) vs conventional treatment(control group) were retrieved from Chinese and English literature databases. The bias risk assessment tool recommended in Cochrane handbook 5.3 was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies. The result data of each outcome index was extracted for network Meta-analysis in Stata 15.0. A total of 44 RCTs were included in this study, involving 4 345 patients and 9 Chinese patent medicines. The network Meta-analysis revealed the following trends.(1)In terms of reducing the visual analogue scale(VAS) scores, Dan'e Fukang Plaster+conventional treatment>Xuefu Zhuyu Capsules+conventional treatment>Gongliuxiao Capsules+conventional treatment.(2)In terms of reducing cancer antigen CA125, Xiaojin Capsules+conventional treatment>Shaofu Zhuyu Granules+conventional treatment>Dan'e Fukang Plaster+conventional treatment.(3)In terms of reducing estradiol(E_2), Gongliuxiao Capsules+conventional treatment>Xiaojin Capsules+conventional treatment>Sanjie Zhentong Capsules+conventional treatment.(4) In terms of reducing recurrence rate, Guizhi Fuling Capsules+conventional treatment>Xuefu Zhuyu Capsules+conventional treatment>Dan'e Fukang Plaster+conventional treatment. The peroral Chinese patent medicines for activating blood and resolving stasis combined with conventional treatment have better efficacy in the treatment of endometriosis than conventional treatment. However, considering the low quality of the included literature, large-scale high-quality clinical trials are needed in the future research.

AbstractBackground:Uterine fibroids are benign. They belong to the category of “abdominal mass” in traditional Chinese medicine, and pathogenesis is mainly caused by weakness of the body, qi stagnation, and blood stasis. Drug therapy is the preferred treatment of uterine fibroids in clinical practice, and mifepristone is the most commonly used drug. In the past decade, a large number of clinical randomized controlled trials have proven that Chinese patent medicine combined with mifepristone in the treatment of uterine fibroids has a better curative effect, fewer adverse reactions, and higher safety than mifepristone alone. However, there is a lack of evidence-based research. This study aims to integrate clinical data through network meta-analysis to provide more evidence-based medical evidence for clinical medication.Methods:The comprehensive search included Chinese and other-language databases, such as MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China Scientific Journal Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database. Clinical randomized controlled trials of 6 Chinese patent medicines combined with mifepristone for the treatment of uterine fibroids, including Guizhi Fuling Capsule, Gongliuxiao Capsule, Gongliuqing Capsule, Danbie Capsule, Gongliuning Capsule, and Xiaojiean Capsule were retrieved. The search period was from January 2010 to April 2021. Two researchers screened the literature through EndNote and used Excel to extract data. RevMan 5.3 was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. Treatment measures were analyzed in R language, and a forest map and probability ranking map of various interventions were drawn. The network evidence map and correction comparison funnel map of various interventions were drawn by STATA 14.0 software.Results:This study provides the clinical efficacy and safety of network meta-analysis of 6 kinds of Chinese patent medicines combined with mifepristone in the treatment of uterine fibroids will be systematically evaluated or descriptively analyzed.Conclusion:This study's purpose is to provide a reference for the clinical treatment of uterine fibroids to choose more effective intervention therapies.
