The Effectiveness of Herbal Medicine on Feeding Intolerance in Preterm Infants: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Background: Feeding intolerance (FI) refers to frequent feeding disruptions, that can adversely affect the growth, nutritional status, and long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm infants (born at 37 ≤ weeks of gestation). This review evaluated the efficacy of herbal medicine (HM) for FI compared to conventional treatments.
Methods: An extensive search across 11 databases was conducted, including English, Chinese, and Korean databases, from August 1 to December 7, 2023. Our inclusion criteria were randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that compared the efficacy of HM with conventional treatments against conventional treatments alone. Statistical analyses involved calculating the mean difference (MD), standardized mean difference (SMD), and risk ratio (RR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI), and assessing the bias risk (RoB 2) using Review Manager Version 5.4 software. The quality of evidence was evaluated using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) rating system.
Results: The meta-analysis showed that combined HM treatments exhibited superior outcomes compared to conventional treatments alone. The time to achieve full enteral feeding (n = 638, random effects MD: -2.91, 95% CI: -4.13 to -1.69), duration of FI (n = 366, fixed effects MD: -1.58, 95% CI: -2.01 to -1.16), and total effective rate (n = 774, random effects RR: 1.26, 95% CI: 1.11 to 1.42) improved with HM. Mild adverse events, such as diarrhea and increased defecation frequency, occurred in 4.17% of the HM combined group, compared to 1.42% in the conventional treatment group.
Conclusions: The findings suggest that combining HM with conventional treatments could be more effective for FI, suggesting HM as an early intervention for FI in preterm infants. Further research on the efficacy and safety of HM in preterm infants is necessary.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
