The present study analyzed the efficacy evaluation indexes of the randomized controlled trials(RCTs) of Chinese medi-cine in the treatment of rheumatic heart disease to lay the foundation for the construction of the corresponding core outcome index set. Clinical RCTs with a definite diagnosis of rheumatic heart disease were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Sino Med, Pub Med, EMbase, and Cochrane Library from January 1, 2010, to December 31, 2020. Thirty-five RCTs were included, involving 3 314 patients and 41 efficacy evaluation indexes, which covered seven domains [traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) symptoms/syndromes, symp-toms/signs, physical and chemical examination, quality of life, long-term prognosis, economic evaluation, and safety events].

- This study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of Gongxuening Capsules for treating abnormal vaginal bleeding after medical abortions by analyzing 16 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from various medical databases.
- The Meta-analysis indicates that combining Gongxuening Capsules with standard western medicine significantly reduces the amount and duration of vaginal bleeding, but does not improve abortion effectiveness or menstrual recovery significantly.
- Adverse effects were commonly reported, such as nausea and abdominal discomfort, with one study noting no adverse events; overall, the evidence quality varied from low to extremely low.
