To evaluate the efficacy, safety and economy of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), selective cycleooxygenase-2 receptor inhibitors (COXIBs), glucocorticoids (GC), and colchicine (COLC) in the treatment of acute gout flare by Meta-analysis.
Literature about randomized controlled trails (RCT) using NSAIDs, COXIBs, GC and COLC in the treatment of acute gout flare was searched through Medline, Embase, CENTRAL, CBM and CNKI up to Mar. 2021 and then screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The data was extracted and assessed for the methodological quality of included studies. Then, Meta-analysis was performed by using R programming and pharmacoeconomics analysis was conducted.
A total of 19 RCTs involving 2 598 patients were included. The results of network Meta-analysis showed that NSAIDs, COXIBs and GC could alleviate patients' pain effectively and improve study joint swelling (P<0.05). COLC had the highest incidence of adverse events among the four kinds of therapeutic drugs. Cost-minimization analysis showed that GC was the most economical treatment.
NSAIDs, COXIBs, GC and COLC can effectively treat acute gout flare, and GC treatment is the most economical.
