Abstract
Background:The incidence of angina pectoris (AP) of coronary heart disease (CHD) is increasing in the world, which seriously affects people's lives and brings a huge economic burden. The clinical research on Xinkeshu (XKS) in the treatment of AP of CHD has been increasing. However, there is no systematic review and meta-analysis. This study intends to provide a basis for systematically evaluating the efficacy and safety of XKS combined with conventional western medicine in the treatment of AP of CHD.Methods:CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMbase databases were searched for the period from the establishment of the database to August 31, 2021. The clinical randomized controlled trials of XKS in the treatment of AP of CHD were collected. Two systematic reviewers independently selected the literature, extracted the data, and evaluated the quality according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The methodological quality of the literature was evaluated using Cochrane Handbook 5.3.0 bias risk assessment tool, RevMan 5.3.0 software was used for meta-analysis and GRADE3.6 evidence quality grading system was used to evaluate the quality.Results:This study intended to evaluate the efficacy and safety of XKS in the treatment of AP of CHD from many aspects, including the frequency of AP, the duration of AP, the dosage of nitroglycerin, and the efficacy of ECG (total effective rate = markedly effective + effective). The secondary indicators included the efficacy of AP (total effective rate = significant + effective), blood lipids (triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol), hemorheology (whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, and fibrinogen), serum factors (C-reactive protein, endothelin-1, homocysteine, and nitric oxide), and adverse drug reactions.Conclusion:The conclusion of the systematic review intended to provide clear evidence of clinical application of XKS combined with conventional western medicine in the treatment of AP of CHD, which can be widely used in the clinic.
