To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository in the treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease. Four Chinese databases,namely CNKI,VIP,WanFang and SinoMed,and three English databases Cochrane Library,namely Medline,and ClinicalTrail.gov were systematically and comprehensively retrieved from the establishment of each database to June 2018. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by using the risk assessment tools developed by the Cochrane Collaboration,and RevMan 5. 3 software was used for Meta-analysis. A total of 675 articles were retrieved,and finally 56 studies were included. The total sample size was 6 228,the test group included 3 267 cases,and the control group included 2 961 cases. The overall quality of the included studies was generally low. According to the intervention measures and outcome indicators,the included studies were divided into different subgroups for analysis. The main results of Meta-analysis showed that the recurrence rate of Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository combined with antibiotics was lower than that of antibiotics alone. Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository combined with antibiotics was superior to antibiotics alone in terms of abdominal pain,leucorrhea abnormality relief time,mass absorption time and pain relief time. In terms of safety,Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository combined with antibiotics had a lower incidence of adverse reactions than antibiotics alone. Based on the results of this study,it is indicated that Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository had a certain effect on the treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease,especially with a lower recurrence rate. The long-term effect is remarkable. No serious adverse reaction was observed. Restricted by the quality of the studies included,the above conclusion need to be further verified in high-quality,largesize,multi-center clinical researches.

Objective: To study the disease process of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) infection in rat model of VVC, and to study the immuno-repairing effect of different treatments on vaginal epithelium and the ultra-structural changes of vaginal epithelial cells. Methods: The VVC model of female rats were established. After successful modeling, the rats were treated with no treatment (model control group), nystatin and Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository. The vaginal epithelium was observed by transmission electron microscopy and immunohistochemical staining. The ultra-structural changes of epithelial cells and the expression of cytokines interferon γ (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL) 4, IL-17 and IgG in epithelial cells were observed and analyzed statistically. Results: The negative conversion rate of model control group was 0, and that of nystatin group was 6/6, and that of Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository group was 5/6; significant difference existed between nystatin, Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository group and model control group (P<0.05). The ultrastructures of vaginal epithelial cells were damaged obviously after VVC infection, and the ultrastructures were repaired by nystatin and Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository under transmission electron microscope. Immunohistochemical staining showed, the expressions of IFN-γ and IgG in the four cytokines which played a protective role increased after Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository treatment, significantly different from that of model control group (P<0.05), but there were no significant differences of the IFN-γ and IgG expression between Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository group and those of nystatin group (P>0.05); the expression of IL-17 was increased after nystatin treatment, but decreased after Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository treatment, and the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusions: The ultrastructure of vaginal epithelial cells after VVC infection could be damaged obviously, the local immune state is disordered, and the antifungal drug nystatin has a good therapeutic effect on VVC, it could significantly repair the damaged vaginal epithelium structure after VVC infection and strengthen the protective immune function of vaginal epithelium. Kangfu Xiaoyan suppository, one of Chinese medicine, has similar therapeutic effect with nystatin.
