ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the clinical effect of Guizhi decoction combined with reduced glutathione in the treatment of pulmonary heart failure patients with acute liver injury.Methods 72 patients with pulmonary heart failure and acute liver injury were divided into treatment group and control group.Patients in the control group were given conventional treatment for pulmonary heart disease,patients in the treatment group were treated with Guizhi decotion and reduced glutathione for three weeks.After three weeks,the clinical efficacy and clinical indicators were evaluated.Results In the treatment group,clinical symptoms,signs,liver function improvement,and oxidized antioxidant indicators,the difference were statistically different compared with those in the control group (t =10.25,5.45,3.23,17.34,11.49,11.61,all P ＜0.05).The total effective rate of the treatment group was 88.9％,which was significantly higher than thant of the control group 52.8％ (x2 =11.36,P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the plasma lipid peroxide (LPO),superoxide dismutase(SOD) had statistically significant differences between the two groups (t =53.08,-9.03,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Guizhi decoction combined with the reductive glutathione can improve symptoms of pulmonary heart failure patients with liver dysfunction,and have good clinical efficacy.
