RESUMEN
[Objective]To observe the clinical effect of the treatment of hormone dependent asthma by Bushen Yiqi Decoction. [Methods]84 cases of hormone dependent asthma in the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from December 2011 to December 2015 were selected. According to the random number table, 84 cases were randomly divided into two groups:control group and observation group, 42 cases in each group. Control group was in accordance with the GINA guidelines recommended fourth level of treatment. Observation group, on the basis of the control group, treated hormone dependent asthma by western medicine in combination with Bushen Yiqi Decoction. [Results] The total effective rate of observation group was 88.1%, and the total effective rate of control group was 71.43%. Two groups of comparison, the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05); IL-5, IL-4, EOS levels were decreased after treatment in the two groups(P<0.05), but the observation group decreased more significantly, compared with the control group, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);During treatment and after treatment, reduction rate of using hormone and antiasthmatics in control group and observation group was respectively(85.7%VS64.3%) and(78.6%VS61.9), two groups of comparison, the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). [Conclusion]Compared with the pure oral hormone plus inhalation in the treatment of hormone dependent asthma, application of Bushen Yiqi Decoction has obvious curative effect and can reduce the dosage of hormone and side effects. It is worthy of clinical promotion.

Methods Totally 150 cases of RA at active stage were randomized into two groups. The control group was given western medicines including Leflunomide, Sulfasalazine suppository and Celecoxib. The treatment group (100 cases) was given Chinese medicines Sihua Siteng Sichong Decoction (Decoction of four flowers, flour stems and four worms) in addition to those western medicines. The course for two groups was 3 months respectively. Clinical symptoms,ESR,CRP,RF and Immuno hemoglobin before and after treatment were observed. Results Of the 100 cases in the treatment group, 30 cases were remarkably effective, 43 cases improved, 20 cases effective, and 7 cases ineffective. The total effective rate was 93%. Of the 50 cases in the control group, 8 cases were remarkably effective, 20 cases improved, 12 cases effective, and 10 cases ineffective. The total effective rate was 80%. The difference between the two groups was significant (P
