The effectiveness and safety of nicorandil in the treatment of patients with microvascular angina: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.

Medicine | 2021

Microvascular angina has become a clinical and frequent cardiovascular disease in recent years, which is complicated and there is no clear treatment. Today, Western medicine still deals with microvascular angina with standardized treatment based on the stable angina. Firstly, it is to control the risk factors of atherosclerosis, and the second is to reduce the oxygen consumption of the patient's heart muscle. In the previous randomized controlled clinical trials, it has shown that nicorandil can improve the symptoms of angina for the treatment of microvascular angina, but there is a lack of high-quality randomized controlled trials on the clinical effectiveness and safety of nicorandil in the treatment of microvascular angina, and the lack of evaluation of its effectiveness and safety. Therefore, this paper aims to understand whether nicorandil can further improve the prognosis of patients with microvascular angina and the safety of the drug through the method of systematic evaluation.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


EMBASE (tool)

RRID:SCR_001650

Comprehensive international bibliographic biomedical database that enables users to track and retrieve precise information on drugs and diseases from pre-clinical studies to searches on critical toxicological information. It contains bibliographic records with citations, abstracts and indexing derived from biomedical articles in peer reviewed journals, and is especially strong in its coverage of drug and pharmaceutical research. Embase can help with everything from clinical trials research to pharmacovigilance and is updated online daily and weekly. Its broad biomedical scope covers the following areas: * Drug therapy and research, including pharmaceutics, pharmacology and toxicology * Clinical and experimental (human) medicine * Basic biological science relevant to human medicine * Biotechnology and biomedical engineering, including medical devices * Health policy and management, including pharmacoeconomics * Public, occupational and environmental health, including pollution control * Veterinary science, dentistry, and nursing The Embase Application Programming Interface supports export, RSS feeds, and integration services, making it possible to share data with a wide range of systems.

MeSH (tool)

RRID:SCR_004750

A controlled vocabulary thesaurus that consists of sets of terms naming descriptors in a hierarchical structure that permits searching at various levels of specificity. MeSH, in machine-readable form, is provided at no charge via electronic means. MeSH descriptors are arranged in both an alphabetic and a hierarchical structure. At the most general level of the hierarchical structure are very broad headings such as Anatomy or Mental Disorders. More specific headings are found at more narrow levels of the twelve-level hierarchy, such as Ankle and Conduct Disorder. There are 27,149 descriptors in 2014 MeSH. There are also over 218,000 entry terms that assist in finding the most appropriate MeSH Heading, for example, Vitamin C is an entry term to Ascorbic Acid. In addition to these headings, there are more than 219,000 headings called Supplementary Concept Records (formerly Supplementary Chemical Records) within a separate thesaurus. The MeSH thesaurus is used by NLM for indexing articles from 5,400 of the world''''s leading biomedical journals for the MEDLINE/PubMED database. It is also used for the NLM-produced database that includes cataloging of books, documents, and audiovisuals acquired by the Library. Each bibliographic reference is associated with a set of MeSH terms that describe the content of the item. Similarly, search queries use MeSH vocabulary to find items on a desired topic.

PubMed (tool)

RRID:SCR_004846

Public bibliographic database that provides access to citations for biomedical literature from MEDLINE, life science journals, and online books. Citations may include links to full-text content from PubMed Central and publisher web sites. PubMed citations and abstracts include fields of biomedicine and health, covering portions of life sciences, behavioral sciences, chemical sciences, and bioengineering. Provides access to additional relevant web sites and links to other NCBI molecular biology resources. Publishers of journals can submit their citations to NCBI and then provide access to full-text of articles at journal web sites using LinkOut.

Search Forms Search is at the core of Embase and all search forms are designed to allow you to look for biomedical and pharmaceutical clinical and research information easily and quickly, whether you are a new or experienced searcher. The Embase search engine allows Boolean searching with wildcard and truncation features, as well as many predefined search limits. Search is divided into five options: Quick, Advanced, Drug, Disease and Article. Quick lets you perform easy yet powerful searches without having to learn a complex search language. It is perfect if you are starting your research and looking for an overview of the literature or good terms to include in your search strategy. Autocomplete will help you to search using the bext terminology. Advanced incorporates options from Emtree term mapping including explosion searching for maximum precision in subject searching (see Emtree) and Drug and Disease provide access to specialized features useful to search these topics, such as ''Adverse Drug Reaction''''Drug Combination''. Generally speaking, drug searches are best carried out in the Drug form, diseases in the Disease form and non-drug and disease searches in the Advanced form. Article allows you to pinpoint individual articles. Embase is owned and operated by Elsevier B.V., Radarweg 29, 1043 NX Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Reg.
