Background:
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a cardiovascular disease caused by myocardial ischemia. In China, safflor yellow and artemisinin-based combination therapies have been extensively used to treat angina pectoris.
Methods:
Efficacies were provided by a network meta-analysis following the PRISMA 2020 checklist. Cost-effectiveness analysis was based on patient perspectives. Two-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess the robustness of the study results.
Results:
Conventional treatment combined with safflower is a better choice against angina pectoris. Sensitivity analysis showed that the model was sensitive to the treatment efficacy rather than the drug cost.
Conclusion:
Conventional treatment combined with safflower injection is suggested to treat angina pectoris. Low molecular weight heparin or compound Danshen-dropping pills can be used to increase the recovery rate of angina pectoris, according to conventional treatment combined with safflower injection.

Antianginal Drugs: Nitrates and β-Blockers
Organic nitrates, such as nitroglycerin, play a pivotal role. Once metabolized, they liberate nitric oxide, a molecular marvel. Nitric oxide triggers guanylyl cyclase and augments cGMP production. This biochemical cascade orchestrates the relaxation of vascular smooth muscles, ushering in vasodilation and enhancing coronary blood flow....
Antianginal Drugs: Calcium Channel Blockers and Ranolazine
CCBs, a diverse class that includes dihydropyridines (nifedipine) and diphenylalkylamines (verapamil and diltiazem), exert their effect by blocking calcium channels in cardiac and smooth muscle cells. This...
