To evaluate the effect of clofibrate for unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia in neonates. A systematic review with meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials or quasi-randomized controlled trials was conducted to evaluate the clofibrate treatment in neonates with unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. We followed the guidelines

There are many pathological conditions leading to an elevated unconjugated bilirubin level (hyperbilirubinaemia) in neonates. Currently the standard therapies for unconjugated hyperbilirubinaemia include phototherapy and exchange transfusion. In addition to phototherapy, clofibrate has been studied as a treatment for hyperbilirubinaemia
