Before and after treatment,immunoglobulin G（IgG） level,erythrocyte sedimentation rate（ESR）,and OPN level were measured.The QOL in patients was evaluated using the Short Form-36 Health Survey（SF-36） before and after treatment.Thirty healthy females were taken as the normal control.Results：Before treatment,levels of IgG,ESR,and OPN in patients were higher than those in the normal control.After 3 months of treatment, those in both treatment groups decreased but were lower in the treatment group than those in the control group （P0.05）.The scores of 8 dimensions of SF-36 were lower in the pSS patients than those in the normal control （P0.05） and higher in the treatment group than in the control group after treatment（P0.05）.Furthermore, there was a positive correlation between the levels of OPN and the levels of IgG and ESR,and a negative correlation between OPN levels and the overall score of SF-36（P0.05）.Conclusions：Chinese herbal medicine for strengthening qi,nourishing yin,and removing stasis could alleviate pSS disease and improve the QOL.In addition,the OPN level might be used as an evaluating index for pSS disease.展开更多

文摘目的 探讨中医益气养阴活血法辨证治疗2型糖尿病(Type 2 diabetes, T2DM)合并慢性心力衰竭(Chronic heart failure, CHF)患者的临床疗效。方法 选取2021年1月—2022年1月期间唐山市中医医院内分泌一科收治的T2DM合并CHF患者102例作为研究对象,按随机数字表法分为对照组与治疗组,每组各51例。对照组给予常规西医治疗,治疗组在对照组基础上联合中医益气养阴活血法辨证治疗,均治疗12周。观察比较两组患者西医疗效、中医证候疗效、安全性及治疗前后血糖水平[空腹血糖(Fasting blood glucose, FPG)、餐后2 h血糖(Blood glucose 2 h after a meal, 2 h PG)、糖化血红蛋白(Glycosylated hemoglobin, HbAlc)]、心功能指标[6分钟步行试验距离(6 min walking test, 6MWT)、左室射血分数(Left ventricular ejection fraction, LVEF)、N末端B型脑钠肽前体(N-terminal B-type brain natriuretic peptide precursor, NT-pro BNP)]、生活质量评分[T2DM生活质量(Quality of life specific scale for diabetes patients, DSQL)、CHF生活质量(Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire, MLHFQ)]变化。结果 临床疗效:治疗后治疗组西医疗效总有效率96.08%(49/51)高于对照组82.35%(42/51),差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);治疗组中医证候疗效总有效率92.16%(47/51)高于对照组68.63%(35/51),差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。血糖水平:治疗后两组患者血糖FPG、2 h PG及HbAlc水平均较治疗前降低,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);且治疗组血糖FPG、2 h PG及HbAlc水平均明显低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。心功能指标:治疗后两组患者心功能6MWT、LVEF水平较治疗前升高,NT-pro BNP水平较治疗前降低,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);且治疗组6MWT、LVEF水平高于对照组,NT-pro BNP水平低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。生活质量:治疗后两组患者DSQL、MLHFQ评分均较治疗前降低,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);且治疗组DSQL、MLHFQ评分均明显低于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。安全性:治疗期间,两组患者不良反应均为轻度或一过性,未影响治疗,且不良反应发生率组间比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论 中医益气养阴活血法辨证治疗T2DM合并CHF效果显著、安全性高,有利于控制患者血糖,改善心功能与生活质量。
