GUO Fei, HUANG Yunhui, NIU Huifang, et al. Systematic Review of Efficacy and Safety of Lithium Carbonate Combined with 131I in the Treatment of Toxic Diffuse Goiter with Leucopenia[J]. 2020,20(9):1107-1111. DOI: 10.14009/j.issn.1672-2124.2020.09.022.
OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of lithium carbonate combined with
131
I in the treatment of toxic diffuse goiter with leucopenia. METHODS: PubMed
the Cochrane Library
CNKI
Wanfang database and VIP database were retrieved by computer
and supplemented by online and manual search
clinical studies of lithium carbonate combined with
131
I in the treatment of toxic diffuse goiter with leucopenia (the observation group was treated with lithium carbonate combined with
131
I
while the control group received
131
I alone) were collected. Meta-analysis was performed on the included studies by using RevMan 5. 3 software. RESULTS: Totally 5 literature were collected
including 777 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that the serum levels of free triiodothylamine (FT
3
) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at 15 d (MD=-17. 85
95%CI =-21. 79--13. 91
P
<
0. 000 01)
30 d (MD =-16. 21
95% CI =-29. 62--2. 80
P = 0. 02) and 90 d (MD=-3. 14
95% CI =-5. 34--0. 93
P = 0. 005) after drug combination
and the differences were statistically significant. The serum levels of free thyroxine (FT
4
) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at 15 d (MD =-18. 09
95%CI =-22. 78--13. 41
P
<
0. 000 01)
30 d (MD =-20. 67
95%CI =-32. 56--8. 78
P = 0. 000 7) and 90 d (MD =-7. 64
95% CI =-12. 18--3. 09
P = 0. 001) after drug combination
and the differences were statistically significant. The white blood cell count (WBC) of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group at 15 d (MD = 0. 56
95% CI = 0. 25-0. 88
P = 0. 000 4) and 30 d (MD = 0. 72
95%CI = 0. 38-1. 07
P
<
0. 000 1)
while there was no statistically significant difference between two groups at 90 d (MD= 1. 12
95%CI=-0. 05-2. 28
P = 0. 06). CONCLUSIONS: Lithium carbonate combined with
131
I can effectively reduce the levels of FT
3
and FT
4
and increase the levels of WBC in patients with toxic diffuse goiter associated with leucopenia.
