Although, some of these fever features have not be paid close attention to in Western medicine, stage-division and classification about fever in Western medicine deserve to be used by Chinese medicine for reference.展开更多

Methods: A total of 60 LPE patients were randomly divided into treatment(QSF) and control(dapoxetine) groups. The treatment group received QSF twice a day and the control group received dapoxetine 1 to 2 h prior to planned sexual intercourse for 4 weeks. The outcomes included intra-vaginal ejaculation latency time(IELT), premature ejaculation diagnostic tool(PEDT), clinical global impression of change(CGIC), scores of Chinese medicine symptoms(CMSS), sex life satisfaction(SLS) and adverse events(AEs). Results: In the treatment group, the median IELT was 3 min vs. 1.5 min before and after treatment(P〈0.05). PEDT in the treatment group was reduced to 11.76±1.68 from 15.83±2.30 after treatment(P〈0.05). Besides, patient's SLS was improved from 1.30±0.05 to 6.30±0.04(P〈0.05), and spouse's SLS was increased from 1.30±0.08 to 6.10±0.06(P〈0.05); CMSS was decrease from 14.86±3.02 to 9.62±2.87(P〈0.05). In addition, no significant AE was observed in both groups. Conclusion: QSF may be effective and safe on LPE patients with Gan depression and Shen deficiency syndrome.展开更多
