Efficacy evaluation of standardized Rheum rhaponticum root extract (ERr 731®) on symptoms of menopause: A systematic review and meta-analysis study

  • Abstract: Menopause is characterized by various physical, mental and emotional symptoms. ERr 731® is a standardized extract from Rheum rhaponticum root and has been clinically studied for its role in reducing menopausal symptoms. The current systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of ERr 731® supplementation in alleviating the severity of menopausal symptoms. In this review, we searched across three online databases up to March 2023, evaluated the quality of the included studies by the Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale, and assessed the risk of bias by the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool. We then performed a meta-analysis using RevMan software to estimate the pooled mean difference (MD). The study protocol was registered in the Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (CRD42023416808). After screening and evaluation, we included four high-quality studies (a total of 390 participants; the ERr 731® group: 193 participants; the control group: 197 participants) in the meta-analysis. The results showed that ERr 731® supplementation significantly reduced the Menopause Rating Scale score (MD: –15.12; P < 0.001), compared with control therapy. Sensitivity analysis revealed no effect of individual studies on the overall pooled estimate or overall observed heterogeneity. The current review provides evidence that ERr 731® supplementation is effective in reducing menopause symptoms. Potential bias and high heterogeneity in the results warrant further clinical studies.
