Abstract:Objective To comprehensively summarize the meta-analysis on peptic ulcer treated with traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and to evaluate the methodological quality of meta-analysis and evidence quality of outcomes. Methods Eight databases including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, OVID, CBM, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library were searched to collect the published meta-analysis on peptic ulcer treated with TCM. The time was from the inception to March 2019. Two researchers conducted literature screening and data extraction independently. The methodological quality of meta-analysis was assessed by using AMSTAR2 tool. The evidence quality was evaluated by using GRADE system. Results Finally, 11 meta-analysis were included, including 38 outcomes. The results of AMSTAR showed that 2 meta-analysis had moderate methodological quality, 3 had low quality, and 6 had very low quality. Results of GRADE showed that 21 outcomes were low quality evidence, 14 outcomes were very low quality evidence, and only 3 outcomes were moderate quality evidence. Conclusion The overall methodological quality of meta-analysis on peptic ulcer treated with TCM is low, and the evidence quality of outcome is generally low, indicating low reliable results. High quality meta-analysis should be conducted in the future for further verification.
