Methods： The data from a multicenter, randomized and double-blinded study conducted at 5 centers in China were obtained for the analysis. A total of 239 patients with angina pectoris and CM syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis were randomly assigned in a 1：1 ratio to Tongxinluo Capsule group （119 cases） and Kangxin Capsule group （120 cases）. Angina effectiveness and electrocardiogram （ECG） improvement were selected as the therapeutic outcomes. Results： After a 4-week treatment, the effective rates of Tongxinluo Capsule and Kangxin Capsule were 43.70% and 25.00%, respectively （P〈0.05）. Serum low-density lipoprotein （LDL） level was found to influence the effectiveness of Tongxinluo Capsule which had higher effective rate in the patients with lower level of LDL. Heart rate was found to influence the effectiveness in the patients treated with Kangxin Capsule which had higher effective rate in the patients with heart rate ≤80 beats/min. Conclusion： LDL level and heart rate were the indicators which help indentify the indications of Tongxinluo Capsule and Kangxin Capsule, respectively, in the treatment of angina pectoris with CM syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis.展开更多

The hemodynamic parameters were monitored.Results: In the CHD patients, 64.9% were differentiated as Qi-Yin deficiency, 67.6% were complicated with phlegm syndrome and 62.2% with blood stasis, suggesting that Qi-deficiency, phlegm and stasis are the basic pathogenetic factors in patients with CABG. Moreover, the peri-operative syndrome was correlated with the condition of coronary artery lesion, heart and lung functions before operation, and the extracorporeal circulation time during the operation.Conclusion: TCM SD conducting in peri-operative stage might be useful in exploring the patterns of syndrome alteration which provided a basis for preventing peri-operative complications and elevating success rate of operation.展开更多
