Description
Xieli Ma and co-authors compare combined Chinese and Western medicine for Sjogren syndrome, in work from 2024. In this illness the immune system harms glands that make tears and saliva. Many drug mixes are used, and a network method can compare them all at once, even without head to head trials for each pair.
The team searched eight databases for randomized trials up to May 2023. Sixty-six trials with over five thousand patients were kept. Four Chinese drugs and three Western drugs were in the mix. The analysis ranks how well each blend worked and how safe it was.
