The therapeutic effect of Chinese medicinal herbs on HIV patients

目的 探讨中草药“再生丹”对ＨＩＶ感染者的治疗作用。方法 采用中药复合治疗方法，主药用于提高机体免疫力，辅药对症治疗。观察临床症状、实验室检测ＣＤ４ 和ＣＤ８ 淋巴细胞数，以及外周血中病毒载量的变化，并与治疗前比较。结果 ２８ 例ＨＩＶ感染者服药后，体重有不同程度增加，平均增加５－４ ｋｇ。７ 例长期发热，４ 例腹泻，２ 例大面积皮肤溃烂和１ 例皮疹患者，服药１ 个月后症状消失；服药后５ 个月，１０ 例表现淋巴结肿大的患者中，３ 例肿大的淋巴结消失，７ 例显示不同程度的数量减少或体积缩小。治疗后２ 个月，４２－９％ 患者表现ＣＤ４ 淋巴细胞数增加，７１－４％ 患者病毒载量下降。治疗５ 个月后，ＣＤ４ 淋巴细胞增加者占５０－０％ ，８０－０％ 患者病毒载量下降，综合分析临床症状和实验室指标，总有效率达９４－０％ 。结论 中草药复合治疗ＨＩＶ感染者，可明显改善临床症状，提高ＣＤ４ 细胞数，使病毒载量下降。

Objective To study the therapeutic effect of Chinese medicinal herbs on HIV patients.Methods We adopted the combined Chinese medicinal herbs for treatment, its chief component is to enhance human immunity and the complementary part is suited for lightening the clinical synptoms. The clinical aspects,the CD 4、CD 8 lymphocyte numbers and the plasma viral load of the patients were compared before and after the treatment.Results Of 28 patients exemined, they all had different degrees of body weight increasing, averagely increased 5.4 kg after treatment. 7 cases having a long time fever, 4 cases of diarrhea, 2 cases of large scale skin ulcer and 1 case of skin rash all had their synptoms disappeared ofter one month treatment. 10 cases, who had lymph nodes enlargement, after treated five months with Chinese medicinal herbs, 3 of them the swelling lymph nodes disappeared, 7 of them the lymph nodes diminished or decreased in number. CD 4 lymphocytes increased in 42.9% and 50.0% patients and viral load decreased in 71.4% and 80.0% patients after two months and five months treatment with Chinese medicinal herbs respectively. Taking clinical symptoms and laboratory indexs into consideration, the total effective rate of Chinese medicinal herbs reached 94.0%.Conclusion The Chinese medicinal herbs can obviously improve the clinical symptoms, increase CD 4 lymphocytes and decrease serum viral load of the HIV patients, thus provides evidence that the Chinese medicinal herbs can be used for control of HIV infection and treatment of AIDS patients.
