Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and security through meta-analysis of a comprehensive study of efficacy of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) versus drug-eluting stent percutaneous coronary intervention (DES-PCI), for diabetes mellitus with multi-vessel coronary disease. Methods Databases including The Cochrane Library, PubMed, MEDLINE, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were searched from their establishment dates to 2010. Published information and conference papers including references were handsearched. Relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on diabetic patients with coronary multi-vessel disease treated with revascularization were collected and screened by two reviewers independently. After data extraction and quality assessment of the included studies, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.0. Results A total of eight studies involving a total of 3 689 cases (CABG group: 1 814 cases; DES-PCI group: 1 875 cases) were included. Results of meta-analyses showed that: compared with the DES-PCI group, the CABG group could significantly reduce postoperative repeat revascularization rate (OR=0.27, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.69, P=0.006) and major cardio-cerebral vascular events (OR=0.49, 95% CI 0.38 to 0.62, Plt;0.000 01). But in reducing mortality rate (OR=0.84, 95%CI 0.64 to 1.10, P=0.21), cerebrovascular events (OR=2.00, 95%CI 0.97 to 4.14, P=0.06) and myocardial infarction incidence rate (OR=0.92, 95%CI 0.53 to 1.59, P=0.75), there were no significant differences between the two groups. Conclusion CABG is superior to DES-PCI in the treatment of diabetic patients with multi-vessel disease. However, due to the limitation of the quality and quantity of the included studies, the above conclusion should be tested by conducting more large-scale, multi-center and prospective RCTs in future.
Objective To systematically review the efficacy and safety of minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) grafting versus percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients with single-vessel disease of the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Methods Databases including The Cochrane Library (Issue 2, 2015), PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WanFang Data and VIP were searched electronically from inception to Oct. 2015, to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about MIDCAB versus PCI for single-vessel disease of the LAD. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2 software. Results A total of 10 RCTs including 1 489 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared with the PCI group, the MIDCAB group could significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative target vessel revascularization (OR=0.20，95%CI 0.13 to 2.29，P < 0.000 01), and the incidence of main adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) (OR=0.44, 95%CI 0.33 to 0.58, P < 0.000 01). No significant differences were found between the two groups in total case mortality (OR=1.23, 95%CI 0.83 to 1.83, P=0.31), cardiogenic death (OR=1.12, 95%CI 0.59 to 2.12, P=0.73), and the incidence of postoperative myocardial infarction (OR=2.16, 95%CI 0.83 to 5.59, P=0.11). Conclusion In reducing the incidences of postoperative target vessels again revascularization and MACCE of patients with single-vessel disease of the LAD, MIDCAB is superior to PCI. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the above conclusion still needs to be verified by carrying out more high-quality RCTs.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the effect of compound Danshen dripping pills combined with Western medicine on inflammatory factors and cardiac function after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction.MethodsDatabases including CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase and The Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials of compound Danshen dripping pills combined with Western medicine in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction after PCI. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the databases to June 11th, 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk bias of included studies. RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis.ResultsA total of 16 studies were included, involving 2 069 patients. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the combination of compound Danshen dripping pills could increase the left ventricular ejection fraction (MD =−4.74, 95%CI 4.07 to 5.42, P<0.01), decrease the B-type natriuretic peptide (SMD=−3.81, 95%CI −5.06 to −2.57, P<0.01), the level of interleukin-6 (SMD=−3.20, 95%CI −4.54 to −1.86, P<0.01) and level of tumor necrosis factor-a (SMD=−4.96, 95%CI −7.03 to −2.89, P<0.01).ConclusionsCurrent evidence suggests that the combination of compound Danshen dropping pills has potential benefits in inhibiting inflammation and improving cardiac function after PCI. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
