“…30,31 Moreover, reducing the risk of hepatocellular inflammatory necrosis, liver fibrosis, decompensated liver cirrhosis, liver failure, and liver cancer, improving quality of life and prolonging survival is the aim of the long-term treatment of chronic hepatitis B. 32,34 The impacts of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection can be lifelong as the disease can become chronic and develop further into cirrhosis, liver failure and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The regions of highest prevalence for HBV infection are Africa, the Pacific region and Asia, where the virus is acquired mainly through perinatal transmission.…”

Introduction: Hepatitis is a systematic viral infection which significantly influences the liver and is divided into five types according to the causative virus. The goal of this article was to review some important medicinal plants used in both traditional Chinese and Iranian medicine in treatment of hepatitis. Methods: This manuscript included randomized control experiments, review articles, observational and analytical studies, which have been surveyed in Google Scholar, Scopus, ResearchGate and PubMed by using keywords including hepatitis, medicinal plants, traditional Iranian medicine, traditional Chinese medicine and health benefits. All relevant papers in both English and Chinese language were searched. We screened the articles first by reviewing titles and abstracts and subsequently reading the whole manuscript of those publications deemed suitable. Results: Three main kinds of hepatitis are recognized as hepatitis A, B, and C, and two other types are D and E. Each is caused by a disimilar virus, and all three types generally last for up to 6 months, although types B and C can be chronic, lasting substantially longer. All relevant papers in English language from different countries were collected. The keywords of hepatitis, medicinal plants, traditional Iranian medicine, traditional Chinese medicine and health benefits were searched in Google Scholar, Scopus, Science Direct and PubMed. The most important herbs used to prevent and treatment of different kinds of hepatitis are cordyceps (Cordyceps sinensis), milk thistle (Silybum marianum), licorice root (Glycyrrhiza glabra), and reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum). The most important signs and symptoms of hepatits are flu-like symptoms, abdominal pain, fatigue, jaundice, nausea, loss of appetite and vomiting, weight loss, dark urine, diarrhea, whole body itching, mild anemia, as well as enlarged and tender liver. Conclusion: The use of natural and traditional medicinal plants in the treatments of different hepatitis may provide new solutions and more favorable results in the treatment of viral hepatitis.

“…Before the 2016 Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) harms checklist was published [2], most systematic review guidance was directed toward the evaluation of efectiveness. Most systematic reviews focused on the efectiveness of TCM interventions [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. With concerns about drug safety issues, systematic reviews and meta-analyses of clinical trial safety data have become more important [11][12][13][14].…”

Background. Systematic reviews focusing on the effectiveness of different kinds of healthcare interventions have been widely published, but there were few guidelines for reporting safety concerns before 2016. The PRISMA harms checklist, which was published in 2016, can standardize reporting quality. Objectives. To evaluate the safety information reporting quality of oral traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in systematic reviews before and after the PRISMA harms checklist was published and to explore factors associated with better reporting. Methods. We searched PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Embase to identify all systematic reviews using oral TCM as interventions published before (from 2013 to 2015) and after (from 2017 to 2020) the PRISMA harms checklist was published. We used the PRISMA harms checklist to assess the quality of reporting of the safety information to included systematic reviews. Results. In total, 200 systematic reviews were sampled from eligible studies published between 2013 and 2020. Reviews from 2016 were excluded. Scores on the PRISMA harms checklist (23 items) ranged from 0 to 12. A systematic reviews published after 2016 had better reporting quality compared with studies published before 2016 with regard to the title ( P = 0.03 ), results of individual studies ( P = 0.016 ), and risk of bias across studies ( P = 0.043 ). In all included systematic reviews of our study, the state conclusion in coherence with review findings was reported adequately with the proportion of adherence at 95%; other items had a reporting proportion ranging from 0% to 57%. The four essential reporting items of the PRISMA harms checklist also had a low reporting quality ranging from 0% to 4%. Conclusions. Oral TCM systematic reviews reported inadequate safety information before and after the PRISMA harms checklist was published. This survey suggested that the PRISMA harms checklist should be recommended more to both original research and systematic review authors.
