%X BACKGROUND: Hand-foot-mouth is a viral infectious disease characterized by fever, hand foot rash and oral mucosal herpes caused by a variety of enteroviruses. It is often found in preschool children, and its immune system is not well developed, so it is very susceptible to infection by pathogens and epidemics, resulting in rapid progress of the disease. At present, the commonly used Chinese patent medicine oral liquid in our country has good clinical efficacy of antiviral, antibacterial, antiphlogistic and improving immunity, but there is no evidence to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of a variety of oral liquid of Chinese patent medicine. Therefore, this study is aim to use the network meta-analysis to integrate the clinical relevant evidence of direct and indirect comparative relationship, and to conduct quantitative comprehensive statistical analysis and sequencing after the aggregation of different Chinese patent medicine oral liquid with the same evidence body, and then the best clinical medication scheme is selected, which can provide reference value and evidence-based theoretical evidence for clinical optimization of drug selection.
METHODS: Comprehensive retrieval of CNKI, VIP, CBM, and WANFANG database and the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science and EMBASE database. Search and publish the clinical RCT of these 7 kinds of oral liquid of Chinese patent medicine compared with ribavirin or oral liquid of Chinese patent medicine. The retrieval time is from the establishment of the database to October 31st, 2021. The 2 first authors will screen the literatures that meets the inclusion criteria, extract the data independently according to the predesigned rules, and evaluate the literature quality and bias risk of the included research according to the Cochrane manual standard. Data merging and network meta-analysis were carried out with R programming software to evaluate the ranking probability of all interventions.
RESULTS: This network meta-analysis and probability ranking will identify the best Chinese patent medicine oral liquid treatment for Hand-foot-mouth.
CONCLUSIONS: This study will provide systematic evidence-based medicine evidence for Chinese patent medicine oral liquid treatment for Hand-foot-mouth, and help clinicians, patients with poststroke depression and decision-makers to make more effective, safer and economic optimal treatment plan in the decision-making process.
