ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effects of amoxicillin capsules combined with Fuke Qianjin Tablets on serum inflammatory factors in patients with acute pelvic inflammatory disease. Methods:A total of 240 patients with acute pelvic inflammatory disease who received treatment in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Shizhu Branch of the First People's Hospital of Yongkang from January 2016 to June 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either treatment with amoxicillin capsules and conventional drugs (control group, n = 120) or amoxicillin capsules, conventional drugs and Fuke Qianjin Tablets in combination (study group, n = 120). Serum inflammatory factors [C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] were compared between before and after treatment in each group and between two groups after treatment. Results:After treatment, CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the control group were (34.28 ± 7.19) mg/L, (103.52 ± 30.18) mg/L, (103.27 ± 37.18) ng/L, and (64.11 ± 13.28) ng/L, respectively and they were (15.26 ± 6.49) mg/L, (60.44 ± 17.64) mg/L, (62.15 ± 15.33) ng/L, (38.19 ± 9.46) ng/L, respectively in the study group. Before treatment, CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the control group were (89.32 ± 17.36) mg/L, (193.27 ± 52.18) mg/L, (180.48 ± 49.25) ng/L, (81.27 ± 18.16) ng/L , respectively and they were (90.48 ± 19.73) mg/L, (192.55 ± 51.84) mg/L, (178.93 ± 50.11) ng/L, (79.83 ± 17.35) ng/L, respectively in the study group. CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels post-treatment were significantly lower than the levels pre-treatment in each group (control group: tCRP = 11.28, P < 0.001; tIL-1 = 12.73, P < 0.001; tIL-6 = 9.48, P < 0.001; tTNF-α = 8.94, P < 0.001; study group: tCRP = 12.38, P < 0.001; tIL-1 = 18.44, P < 0.001; tIL-6 = 13.29, P < 0 .001; tTNF-α = 12.43, P < 0.001). CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels post-treatment in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( tCRP = 9.37, P < 0.001; tIL-1 = 11.84, P < 0.001; tIL-6 = 8.33, P < 0.001; tTNF-α = 7.38, P = 0.002). Response rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (95.83% vs. 75.00%, χ2 = 27.29, P < 0.001). Before and after treatment, there were no significant differences in safety indicators between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:Amoxicillin capsules combined with Fuke Qianjin Tablets is highly effective on acute pelvic inflammatory disease, greatly lower inflammatory factor levels, and is highly safe.
