Abstract
OBJECTIVE: The present study aims to compare the relative efficacy and safety of jinshuibao (JSB) combined with angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEIs/ARBs) in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease. METHODS: We searched EMBASE, MEDLINE, PubMed, China National Knowledge Internet, the Chinese Biomedical Database, and Wanfang database for articles from the building of the database to September 2018. RESULTS: Fifty-one randomized controlled trials with 3,955 participants were included. The meta-analysis indicated that compared with the controls, JSB combined with ACEI/ARB group could remarkably improve the overall response rate (odds ratio 4.91; 95% confidence interval [CI] 3.32-7.25) and reduce 24 h proteinuria (mean difference [MD] -0.16; 95% CI -0.19 to -0.13), urine albumin excretion ratio (MD -28.20; 95% CI -36.30 to -20.11), serum creatinine (MD -13.84; 95% CI -18.01 to -9.68), blood urea nitrogen (MD -1.00; 95% CI -1.36 to -0.63), systolic blood pressure (MD -4.57; 95% CI -6.78 to -2.37), diastolic blood pressure (MD -3.96; 95% CI -5.73 to -2.19), fasting blood glucose (MD -0.85; 95% CI -1.45 to -0.24), hemoglobin A1c (MD -0.52; 95% CI -0.83 to -0.21), serum total cholesterol (MD -0.53; 95% CI -0.86 to -0.20), and triglyceride (MD -0.53; 95% CI -0.55 to -0.51). CONCLUSIONS: JSB combined with ACEI/ARB in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease is superior to the single application of ACEI/ARB.
