METHODS： Computer retrieved CNKI, VIR CBM and other databanks and manual operations retrieved correlative literatures to find randomized con- trolled trials （RCTs） about comparison between point application or adjuvant therapy and no-point-applications for treatment of chronic ob- structive pulmonary disease in stationary phase in China. RevMan 5.0 software was used for Meta anal- ysis. RESULTS： Among 3481 cases in the inclusive 32 RCTS, 1780 cases were in the test group and 1701 cases in the control group. Meta analysis indicated： I） clinical efficacy： the groups containing point ap- plication therapy all were better than the groups ofno-point-application; 2） force vital capacity （FVC）： There was no statistically significant difference be- tween the group of point application plus Western Medicine and the Western Medicine group; 3） force expiratory volume 1 （FEVl）： The groups containing point application therapy were better than the no-point-application; 4） FEV1% ： the groups of point application plus Western Medicine were bet- ter than the Western Medicine groups; 5） FEVl/FVC： there was a significant difference between the group of point application plus Chinese drugs and the group of Chinese drug. CONCLUSION： Point application can increase clini- cal efficacy of chronic obstructive pulmonary dis- ease in stationary phase in varying degrees, and dif- ferent combinations of point application with Chi- nese drugs or Western Medicines have incomplete same actions in improvement of pulmonary func- tion and therapeutic effect.展开更多

METHODS： The literatures concerning randomized controlled trials （RCTs） and quasi-RCTs comparing TCM treatment plus Western Medicine （WM） treat- ment with TCM alone, orTCM treatment vs no treatment, placebo for stable phase of COPD were searched in PubMed （1990-December 2010）, in Eng- lish and using Chinese National Knowledge Infra- structure （CNKI, 1990-December 2010）, Chinese Bio- medical Database （1990-December 2010）, Wang- fang Database （1990-December 2010）, and Weipu （VlP） Database in Chinese. The quality assessment and data extraction for RCTs were conducted by two reviewers independently. Jadad scale and allo-cation concealment were used to assess the quality of the included studies, and meta-analyses were conducted with the Collaboration＇s Revman 5.0 software. RESULTS： Seventeen RCTs or quasi-RCTs involving 1269 patients were included. The methodological quality was poor in all trials except one trial （Jadad score=4）. In the meta-analysis, TCM-WM treatment was significantly superior to WM treatment in cure rate [0R=3.82, 95%C/（2.45, 5.95）], and the effective rate between TCM treatment and placebo also had significant difference [0R=4.31, 95%C/（2.35, 7.91）]. Moreover, pulmonary function of the patients in TCM-WM group and TCM group was significantly improved [forced vital capacity （FVC）, P=O.01, quali- ty of life, P〈O.O01 ]. CONCLUSION： The experience in TCM-WM treat- ment of COPD in stable phase was encouraging. The current evidence shows that TCM-WM treat- ment might be more efficient in effective rate, qual- ity of life, and FVC than WM treatment alone. But for forced expiratory volume in one second （FEVl） and FEV1/FVC, no matter TCM-WM treatment com- pared with WM treatment alone or TCM treatment compared with placebo, there was no significant difference, with no obvious adverse reactions. Due to the low methodological quality of trials includ- ed, more RCTs of high quality in large scale are re- quired.展开更多
