We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library database and conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. Thirty-six studies involving 44 655 patients with coronary artery disease(CAD) treated with clopidogrel were included, of which more than 68% had undergone percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI). The primary outcome of our interest was the recurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE) in those CAD patients. Firstly, we found that the distribution of reduced-function CYP2C19 allele varied between Westerners and Asians. Among Asians, 1 and 2 reduced-function CYP2C19 mutant allele carriers accounted for 42.5% and 10%, respectively. While among Westerners, 1 and 2 reduced-function CYP2C19 mutant allele carriers accounted for 25.5% and 2.4%, respectively. Secondly, the impact of CYP2C19 polymorphism on clinical outcomes of patients treated with clopidogrel varied with races. Among Asians, only 2 reduced-function CYP2C19 mutant allele carriers had the reduced effect of clopidogrel. And the reduced effect was significant only after the 30 th day of treatment. While among Westerners, both 1 and 2 reduced-function CYP2C19 allele carriers had the reduced effect, and it mainly occurred within the first 30 days. Thirdly, the safety of clopidogrel was almost the same among races. Reduced-function allele non-carriers had higher risk for total bleeding but did not have higher risk for major bleeding. It is suggested that CYP2C19 polymorphism affects the efficacy of clopidogrel differently among Westerners and Asians.展开更多

Network meta-analysis of these comparisons among three injection treatments has been seldom reported.Aim To compare the efficacy and safety of various injections for agitation symptoms in Chinese patients with schizophrenia.Methods Searches were made in PubMed, Embase and Web of Knowledge, Cochrane Library, Wanfang data, CNKI, SinoMed and VIP databases up to 18 February 2018. Standard search strategies were performed by two reviewers according to the Cochrane Review Group. The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials statement was used to assess the methodological quality of the studies. STATA was used to perform meta-analysis. The Cochrane Grades of Recommendation, Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) was used to assess the strength of evidence.Results A total of 15 studies were included in the network meta-analysis. There were 11 studies comparing ziprasidone with haloperidol, and four studies comparing haloperidol with clonazepam. The results showed that ziprasidone is more effective than haloperidol and clonazepam(sucra: 77.2, 72.8 and 0) in the treatment of agitation symptoms. There was the effect size(standardised mean difference(SMD)) in the three groups: haloperidol: SMD=2.278, 95% CI 1.836 to 2.719; ziprasidone: SMD=2.536, 95% CI 2.082 to 2.990; and clonazepam: SMD=1.360, 95% CI 0.127 to 2.593. The acceptability was assessed by the incidence of excessive sedation, which showed that ziprasidone and haloperidol were similar with both being superior to clonazepam(sucra: 0.3, 0.7 and 99.0). Ziprasidone had significantly less adverse effects than haloperidol in effects of extrapyramidal system(EPS)(z=5.01, p<0.001). There were no statistically significant differences between haloperidol and ziprasidone in tachycardia and abnormal ECG(z=1.69, p=0.091; z=0.87, p=0.386; respectively).

Pub Med, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials(CENTRAL) were searched for English-language randomized controlled trials(RCTs) that assessed the effectiveness of rotigotine for RLS. The pooled mean change from baseline in International RLS(IRLS) Study Group Rating Scalescore and relative risk(RR) of response based on the Clinical Global Impression-Improvement(CGI-I) scale score were applied to evaluate the outcomes. The pooled proportions of adverse events(AEs) were also estimated. Six RCTs were included. The meta-analysis showed a favorable effectiveness of rotigotine versus placebo on RLS [mean change on IRLS score: mean difference(MD)=–4.80; 95% confidence interval(CI): –5.90 to –3.70; P〈0.00001 and RR of response on CGI-I was 2.19; 95% CI: 1.86 to 2.58, P〈0.00001]. The most common AEs were application site reactions, nausea, headache and fatigue. In general, rotigotine was well-tolerated in patients with primary RLS. Based on the findings from the meta-analysis, rotigotine was more significantly efficacious in the treatment of RLS than placebo. Nevertheless, long-term studies and more evidence of comparisons of rotigotine with other dopamine agonists are needed.展开更多

True difference in survival,if it exists,would have important implications for genetic counseling and in treatment of hereditary BC. The purpose of this study was to compare overall survival rate(OSR) among BRCA2 mutation carriers,non-carriers and sporadic BC patients. We searched the PUBMED and EMBASE databases and retrieved 4529 articles using keywords that included breast cancer,BRCA,prognosis and survival. Nine articles were selected for systematic review and among them 6 were included in our meta-analysis. We used the fixed and random effect models to calculate the summary odds ratio(OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval(CI). BRCA2 mutation carriers had significantly higher long-term OSR than non-carriers(OR=0.69 [95% CI=0.5–0.95]),while both short-term and long-term OSR of BRCA2 mutation carriers did not differ from those of patients with sporadic disease(OR=1.11 [95% CI=0.74–1.65]; 0.85 [95% CI=0.38–1.94],respectively). For BC-specific survival rate(BCSSR),BRCA2 mutation carriers had a similar BCSSR to the non-carriers(OR=0.61 [95% CI=0.28–1.34]). There was no significant difference in disease-free survival(DFS) between BRCA2 mutation carriers and patients with sporadic disease. Our results suggest that BRCA2 mutation increases long-term OSR in hereditary BC,which reminds us a new prospect of management of the disease.展开更多

Thus, we performed a metaanalysis to investigate whether the variations in HFE gene increase the risk of ALD. The studies published up to Feb. 2014 were identified by searching Pub Med/MEDLINE, ISI Web of Science, EMBASE and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases, which was complemented by screening the references of the retrieved studies. For all genotypes and alleles, the odds ratios(ORs) with 95% confidence intervals(CIs) according to the heterogeneity were pooled using fixed-effect model. Sixteen studies with 1933 cases and 9874 controls were included for this meta-analysis. C282Y/C282 Y, C282Y/wild type, H63D/wild type and C282Y/H63 D were found not to be associated with susceptibility to ALD, but increased risk of H63D/H63D(OR: 1.52, 95% CI: 1.05–2.22, P=0.029) was observed for ALD when compared to total control. Comparison of ALD patients with alcoholics without liver damage revealed a significant association of D allele, as well as a marginal association of H63D/wild type with ALD, while H63D/H63 D was not significantly associated with ALD although increased value of OR was obtained. The presence of Y allele and other genotypes yielded insignificant findings when ALD patients were compared with alcoholics without liver damage. No evident publication bias or significant heterogeneity among studies was detected in this meta-analysis. In conclusion, our metaanalysis showed a marginal higher prevalence of H63 D variant in ALD but did not support an increased risk of C282 Y mutation.展开更多
