Abstract
In this study, a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) monotherapy with combination therapies utilizing UDCA and budesonide was performed. We found that combination therapy with UDCA and budesonide was more effective than UDCA monotherapy for primary biliary cirrhosis-autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome. Moreover, compared to prednisone, budesonide has fewer side effects.
