[Analysis of clinical effects of shuxuening injectionon renal function based on hospital information system data].

The safety of drugs has been the important issue that has caught the mutual attention of clinicians and patients. Kidney is one of the important organs in drug metabolism. The study is based on hospital information system (HIS) data from 20 nationwide general hospitals, indicated by Scr and BUN. Generalized boosted models (GBM) based on propensity score method were used to balance confounding factors. The study contrasts changes on renal function between used Shuxuening injection patients and the unused to explore whether Shuxuening injection affects renal function in clinical. The results showed that Shuxuening injection is likely to affect Scr in logistic regression (P value is 0.035); after the logistic regression based on propensity score method (P value became 0.513, 0.590), no differences were found between the two groups; before and after the logistic regression based on propensity score method (P value was less than 0.05), Shuxuening injection possibly affects BUN. Nevertheless, this study is a retrospective analysis. Logistic regression based on propensity score method can control the known confounding factors very well, while there may be the unknown ones. Therefore, the further exploration is required to monitor whether Shuxuening injection affects really BUN, which will provide clinical guidance for Shuxuening injection safe application.
