Résumé

Many clinical trials testing MEDLINE, PubMed and EMBASE were searched for randomized, placebo-controlled double-blind trials of EGb 761 in mild impairment of cognitive functioning. All trials involving patients who met retrospectively applied diagnostic criteria for mild NCD were included. Trials of primary prevention of dementia and trials of combinations of medical treatments were excluded. Among 298 records found in databases and 76 further records related to EGb 761 in references of systematic reviews, 9 reports on clinical trials involving 946 patients met the pre-specified criteria for inclusion. Beneficial effects of EGb 761 were seen in neuropsychological tests (8 of 9 studies), scales for neuropsychiatric symptoms (3 of 3 studies), geriatric rating scales (1 of 2 studies) and global ratings of change (1 of 1 study). Significant effects were found in several domains of cognition (memory, speed of processing, attention and executive functioning). Among the neuropsychiatric symptoms, depression (2 of 3 studies) and anxiety (1 of 1 study) were significantly improved. No differences between EGb 761 treatment and placebo were seen with regard to the rates of adverse events. The included studies demonstrate treatment benefits of
