RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy of Shengxuening tablets reducing the risk of microinflammation in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients with renal anemia. METHODS:60 MHD patients were randomly divided into observa-tion group and control group with 30 cases in each group. The total dialysis times of all the patients were 12 h every week at blood flow of 200-250 ml/min and dialysis flow of 500 ml/min. Both groups received routine treatment;observation group was additional-ly given Shengxuening tablets orally 1.0 g,tid;control group was given ferrous succinate 0.2 g,tid,orally;both groups were giv-en subcutaneous injection of erythropoietin (EPO),10 000 IU/time,once a week;treatment for all of the patients lasted for 3 months. The fasting venous blood sample were collected at the beginning of treatment and in the morning every one months. The levels of hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),IL-6,hemoglobin(Hb),and hematocrit (Hct)were detected. RESULTS:After 3 months of treatment,total effective rate of 2 groups were 90.00%,the levels of hs-CRP、TNF-α、IL-6 in observation group were much lower than that before treatment and control group after treatment,with statistical sig-nificance(P<0.05 or P<0.01). No severe ADR was found in 2 groups,and the incidence of ADR in observation group(6.67%) was significantly lower than in control group (13.33%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Shengxuening tablets have good curative effect,and they can reduce the risk of microinflammation due to the long-term use of EPO and chalybeate.
