The Clinical Efficacy of Phytochemical Medicines Containing Tanshinol and Ligustrazine in the Treatment of Stable Angina: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background. Phytochemical medicines containing tanshinol and ligustrazine are commonly used in the treatment of stable angina in China, but their clinical effectiveness and risk have not been adequately assessed. In this paper, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the clinical efficacy. Methods. Relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of phytochemical medicines containing tanshinol and ligustrazine in the treatment of stable angina were searched in electronic databases. The search date was up to March 31, 2020, and the languages of the RCTs were limited to English and Chinese. Results. A total of 28 studies, including 2518 patients, were included in the meta-analysis. It was shown that the adjunctive therapy of phytochemical medicines containing tanshinol and ligustrazine was better than the conventional therapies in the improvement of stable angina according to the clinical efficacy in symptoms (n = 2518, RR = 1.24, 95% CI: 1.20 to 1.29, <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M1"> <a:mi>P</a:mi> <a:mo><</a:mo> <a:mn>0.01</a:mn> </a:math> ) and clinical efficacy in electrocardiography (n = 1766, RR = 1.29, 95% CI: 1.19 to 1.40, <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" id="M2"> <c:mi>P</c:mi> <c:mo><</c:mo> <c:mn>0.01</c:mn> </c:math> ). Conclusion. The meta-analysis supported the use of phytochemical medicines containing tanshinol and ligustrazine in the treatment of stable angina. However, quality of the evidence for this finding was low due to a high risk of bias in the included studies. Therefore, well-designed RCTs are still needed to further evaluate the efficacy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
