The Jianpi suppository group used Chinese herbal suppository rectally, while the mesalazine group was treated with mesalazine tablets orally. Two 15-day courses of treatment were carried out in both groups. Changes in the hemorheology and CD62p indices in patients were observed.RESULTS: The hemorheology and CD62p indices in the Jianpi suppository group decreased significantly more than those of the mesalazine group.CONCLUSION: Jianpi suppository is effective in improving the hypercoagulability of UC patients, and therefore may be worth using in clinical practice.展开更多
