| Core Tip |
Several systematic reviews have reported the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formulas for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. This overview critically appraised currently available systematic reviews. Based on high quality evidences, TCM formulas may benefit ultrasound improvement and alanine aminotransferase normalization. Nevertheless, the quality of evidence should be further degraded when transforming into clinical practice due to indirectness. The included systematic reviews were generally in poor quality, which may be blamed on the unsatisfactory quality of the available randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Hence, further emphasis should be placed on designing rigorous RCTs instead of repeatedly conducting systematic reviews. |
