ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of Baofukang suppositories on cervical columnar epithelial ectopic and the influence on the expression of uterine tissue intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICMI-1), transforming growth factor b1 (TGF-b1) mRNA and inflammatory cytokines in cervical tissues.Methods: Totally 102 patients with cervical columnar epithelial ectopic were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group with 51 ones in each.The observation group received Baofukang suppositories, and the control group was treated with cryosurgery.The clinical efficacy was compared between the groups, and before and after the treatment, the levels of ICMI-1 mRNA, TGF-b1 mRNA and inflammatory cytokines were also recorded and compared.Results: The clinical curative effect of the observation group was 94.12%,which was better than that of the control group (P＜0.05).After the treatment, the levels of ICMI-1 mRNA and TGF-b1 mRNA decreased when compared with those before the treatment (P 0.05), while those in the observation group decreased after the treatment (P <0.05), which were significantly lower than those in the control group (P＜0.05).There were no significant changes in menstrual period and menstrual cycle in the two groups before and after the treatment, and no adverse reactions occurred during the treatment.Conclusion: Baofukang suppositories are effective in the treatment of columnar epithelial ectopic, which can reduce the levels of ICMI-1 mRNA, TGF-b1 mRNA and serum inflammatory cytokine in the patients.
