ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate clinical efficacy of additive LiuJunZi decoction in treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pneumonia ( COPD) of both lung and spleen deficiency in stable phase.Methods A total of 58 patients with deficiency of both lung and spleen type stable COPD patients were randomly divided into treatment group and control group by a random number table, 29 cases in each group, patients in two groups were treated with salmeterol and fluticasone propionate powder for inhalation.On this basis, the treatment group were given additive Liujunzi Decoction, orally, with 3 months treatment.The clinical signs and symptoms of patients, pulmonary function, index of sputumand acute attack proportion in a year were observed and compared.Results After different treatment, total efficiency was 93.1% in treatment group, which was obviously higher than 65.5%in control group (P<0.05).After treatment, the values of FEV1 and FEV1/FVC improved compared with before treatment, and the above indexes of treatment group significantly improved compared with control group (P<0.05).The HDACs activety, levels of TNF-αand IL-8 mproved compared with before treatment, and the above indexes of treatment group significantly improved compared with control group (P<0.05).The acute attack was two cases in treatment group(6.9%), seven cases in control group(24.1%), but the difference had no statistically significant.Conclusion The additive Liujunzi decoction in the treatment of both lung and spleen deficiency type chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD) in stable phase has exact clinical curative effect, can significantly improve clinical symptoms and laboratory indexes, control the progression of the disease, and improve life quality of the patients.
