Validation of Dose Conversion of Banxia Houpotang Based on Systematic Evaluation
There are many different opinions on dose conversion of famous classical formulas from
Treatise on Febrile Diseases
or
Synopsis of the Golden Chamber
which has become a difficult point in research and development of famous classical formulas. At present
the clinical application dose of Banxia Houpotang is similar to the viewpoint that 1 Liang is equivalent to 3 g
in order to provide scientific basis for this conversion method
this paper systematically evaluated the effectiveness of Banxia Houpotang in intervening globus hystericus. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Banxia Houpotang in intervening globus hystericus from CNKI

Web of Science and PubMed databases were collected online
the retrieval time was from inception to April 1
2019. Two reviewers independently screened the literature
extracted the data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Then
Meta analysis was performed by RevMan 5.3 software. A total of 17 RCTs involving 1 575 patients were included. The effective rate [relative risk (RR)=1.24
95%confidence interval (CI) (1.18

95%CI (1.45

P

0.000 01] of Banxia Houpotang in intervening globus hystericus were all better than the control group. Current evidence shows that Banxia Houpotang under the conversion of 3 g in 1 Liang has a significant effect on intervention of globus hystericus. Due to the limitations of quantity and quality of the included studies
the above conclusions need to be verified by more high-quality studies
but the author suggests that such dose conversion should be considered in the research and development of famous classical formulas.
