AbstractTo assess the clinical efficacy of Huoxue Huayu Chinese medicine injections on hypertensive nephropathy by using Network Meta-analysis method. The relative randomized controlled trials(RCTs) of Huoxue Huayu Chinese medicine injections on hypertensive nephropathy were retrieved from CNKI, WanFang, VIP, SinoMed, PubMed, Cochrane Library and Web of Science in November 2019. Two researchers independently conducted literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation. The data was analyzed by RevMan 5.3, Stata 15.1, ADDIS 1.16.8 software. Finally, 4 518 patients in 50 RCTs were included, involving 5 kinds of Huoxue Huayu Chinese medicine injections. The five Chinese medicine injections were Breviscapine Injection, Danhong Injection, Sodium Tanshinone Ⅱ_A Sulfonate Injection, Ginkgo Dipyridamole Injection, and Salvianolate Injection. Meta-analysis showed that, in terms of renal function protection, urine protein quantification and serum creatinine of each Chinese medicine injections combined with conventional Western medicine group, except Salvianolate Injection combined with conventional Western medicine group, was significantly lower than those of the conventional Western medicine treatment group. Ginkgo Dipyridamole Injection combined with conventional Western medicine had the best effect in reducing urine protein, and Danhong Injection combined with conventional Western medicine had the best effect in reducing serum creatinine. In terms of blood pressure control, the blood pressure of each Chinese medicine injections combined with conventional Western medicine group, except Breviscapine Injection combined with conventional Western medicine group, was significantly lower than that of conventional Western medicine treatment group. Salvianolate Injection combined with conventional Western medicine had the best effect in reducing blood pressure. In terms of safety, no serious adverse reactions were found in all studies. The five kinds of Huoxue Huayu Chinese medicine injections combined with conventional Western medicine had significantly advantages in the treatment of hypertensive nephropathy. Ginkgo Dipyridamole Injection combined with conventional Western medicine is most likely to be the optimal therapy. However, limited by the quantity and quality of the documents included, the conclusion of this study still needs to be verified by more high-quality, multi-center and large-sample RCT.
