BACKGROUND: Severe pneumonia (SP) is a critical respiratory disease characterized by its severity and high mortality rate. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has gradually been used as an adjunctive therapy in clinical treatment of SP, yet its efficacy and safety lack systematic evidence. This study aims to analyze, evaluate, and compare current research evidence on TCM adjunctive therapy for SP, providing a basis for clinical treatment of this condition.
METHODS: A systematic search was conducted on both English and Chinese online databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP) to identify relevant papers published from inception to November 2023. High-quality randomized controlled tests (RCTs) were selected for analysis. Outcome measures related to SP were extracted from the literature. Statistical analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 (Cochrane) software to assess heterogeneity among included studies, calculate mean differences, odds ratios, and their 95% confidence intervals, and detect publication bias.
RESULTS: A total of 34 RCTs met the inclusion criteria. Comparative analysis revealed that integrating TCM with conventional treatment significantly improves the overall clinical effective rate(P < .05). Specifically, it markedly alleviates TCM symptoms (P < .05). Additionally, TCM adjunctive therapy reduces levels of inflammatory markers including white blood cells, C-reactive protein (P < .05), and decreases Clinical Pulmonary Infection Score and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores compared to conventional treatment alone (P < .05). Compared to conventional treatment alone, TCM adjunctive therapy also enhances arterial blood gas indices (PaO2) (P < .05) and pulmonary function (forced expiratory volume in 1 second) (P < .05). Complication rates and mortality are lower in the TCM adjunctive therapy group(P < .05). Moreover, TCM treatment significantly boosts immune function (cluster of differentiation 4+ T lymphocyte) (P < .05).
CONCLUSION: Integrating TCM with conventional treatment shows advantages in the efficacy of SP treatment, clinical symptoms management, inflammatory markers, and severity grading. Compared to conventional treatment alone, TCM adjunctive therapy improves immune function, pulmonary function, complication rates. However, future research should focus on large-scale, high-quality RCTs to further validate the effectiveness and safety of TCM adjunctive therapy for SP.
