Methods: By single blind method, 45 elderly males with KYD were divided randomly into the ZCP group (treated by ZCP) and the control group (treated by placebo, starch capsule) and treated for 3 months.Results: ZCP could greatly improve the main symptoms of KYD, P < 0. 01 in comparison with the control group. After treatment, in the ZCP group, the 3H-TdR lymphocyte transformation rate, levels of serum C3,IgA, IgD, IgG and IgM, superoxide dismutase, plasma adrenocortical hormone, testosterone and cyclic adenosine monophosphate all increased, P < 0. 01, and plasma lipid peroxide decreased, P < 0. 01. While in the control group, no remarkable change was found in these parameters. Conclusion: ZCP could improve the KYD through regulating the immunity, endocrine function and scavenging the free radicals in organism.展开更多
