Abstract

Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is widely used in treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) clinically. It is believed that Danhong injection (DHI) extracted from salviae miltiorrhizae and flos carthami combined with PCI could increase the therapeutic efficacy on ACS. We provide an updated meta-analysis with detailed information on combination of DHI and PCI therapy. Materials and Methods: Electronic databases were searched for appropriate articles without language limitations on key words before October 22, 2017. All trails were screened according to certain criteria. Quality of eligible studies was also assessed. We made a detailed record of outcome measurements. RevMan 5.3 software was used to perform the meta-analysis. Results: 14 articles involving 1533 patients with ACS were selected. Compared to PCI treatment alone, total efficacy rate (TER) was enhanced and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were reduced significantly for the combination of DHI and PCI (P < 0.00001). Vascular endothelial function was improved by significantly decreasing the contents of ET-1, vWF and increasing the levels of NO and FMD (P < 0.00001). The serum levels of IL-1, IL-6, IL-18, TNF-α, LpPLA2, MMP-9, and pentraxin-3 were significantly decreased (P < 0.00001), whereas IL-10 in serum was increased (P < 0.00001), indicating a stronger anti-inflammatory effect of the combination. The combination therapy decreased the serum levels of CD62P, PAGT, PADT, FIB-C significantly (P < 0.05), which was beneficial for preventing coagulation of platelets. Blood lipid was also affected by regulating TC, TG, LDL, and HDL, but the results were not statistically significant (P > 0.05). Cardiac function was improved by increasing LEVF (P = 0.006) but not LVED (P = 0.08). The combination treatment was associated with an improvement in antioxidant effect by decreasing MDA and increasing SOD significantly (P < 0.00001). Conclusion: Combination of DHI and PCI in treatment of ACS could improve TER and reduce incidence of MACE after PCI therapy. These effects may be mediated by combined actions of several mechanisms. However, these results of this study should be handled cautiously due to the limitations of this research. Several rigorous RCTs are in need to confirm these findings.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 June 2018.
All research outputs
#18,639,173
of 23,090,520 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Pharmacology
#8,439
of 16,441 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#254,962
of 329,882 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Pharmacology
#179
of 398 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,090,520 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 16,441 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.0. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 329,882 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 12th percentile – i.e., 12% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 398 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
