摘要: 目的 对中医药治疗小儿上呼吸道感染发热的临床疗效进行系统评价,分析目前临床研究现状。方法 检索2002年至2012年国内外公开发表的有关中医药治疗小儿上呼吸道感染发热的随机对照试验(RCT)。按照数据提取表提取数据,Jadad标准评价文献质量,由两名评价者独立提取资料并进行方法学质量评估,采用RevMan 4.3软件对纳入研究进行系统评价。结果 检索到相关文献112篇,最终纳入符合条件的14篇文献共1989例患者。经Meta分析显示,中医药治疗小儿上呼吸道感染发热总有效率优于西药治疗,差异有统计学意义比值比(OR)=3.66,95%可信区间(95%CI)为2.78~4.82,Z=9.22,P<0.01。结论 中医药治疗小儿上呼吸道感染发热与西药治疗相比具有一定的优势;但因纳入文献数量有限且部分质量较低,结论尚不确定,需高质量证据来进一步验证。Abstract: OBJECTIVE To make a system assessment on TCM drugs treating on children's upper respiratory tract infection with fever, and to analyze the current situation of the clinical studies. METHODS The randomized controlled trial (RCT) of TCM drugs treating children's upper respiratory tract infection with fever published home and broad were searched from 2002 to 2012. According to the data from data base, the literatures' quality were assessed by Jadad standard. Two independent evaluators extract data and assess the quality methodologically. And then the include studies were system assessed by RevMan 4.3 software. RESULTS 112 related literature were retrieved, and 14 of them were qualified including 1989 cases. The Meta analyses shows that the curative effect of TCM drugs treating upper respiratory tract infection with fever are better than western medicines, and the difference was statistically significant OR=3.66, 95%CI is 2.78~4.82, Z=9.22, P<0.01. CONCLUSION TCM drugs's curative effect of treating children's upper respiratory tract infection with fever is better than western medicines, however, because the limited quantity and quality of the included literature, the conclusion is not certain yet, and more high qualitied evidence are needed in the future.
