Clinical study of Chaishao-Shugan-Lidan-Paishi Decoction assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the treatment of chronic cholecystitis with gallstones / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of Chaishao-Shugan-Lidan-Paishi Decoction assisted with laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the treatment of chronic cholecystitis with gallstones. Methods:According to the random number table method, 198 cases of chronic cholecystitis combined with cholecystolithiasis were admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to January 2019 and were divided into two groups, 99 cases in each group. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in both group. Then the control group was treated with Ursodeoxycholic Acid, and the observation group was treated with Chaishao-Shugan-Lidan-Paishi Decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. The clinical efficacy was evaluated after the treatment TCM symptoms and signs were scored before and after the treatment; the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, hs-CRP, gastrin (GAS), motilin (MOT) and somatostatin (SST) were detected by double antibody sandwich ELISA, and the adverse reactions during the treatment were recorded. Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was 94.9% (94/99), the control group was 82.8% (82/99), the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=7.364, P=0.007). The score of the right flank pain, the level of upset and irritable condition, the sense of fullness of epigastric cavity, greasiness, nausea and vomiting, belching score after the treatment in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 7.229, 4.773, 4.442, 2.302, 5.887, 4.235, respectively, P<0.05 or P<0.01). After the treatment, the levels of serum TNF-α, IL-6, hs-CRP in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t values were 9.330, 18.425, 26.886, respectively, all Ps<0.05), and the levels of serum GAS (104.53 ± 2.13 ng/L vs. 96.61 ± 3.29 ng/L, t=20.106) and MOT (386.60 ± 9.42 ng/L vs. 345.50 ± 12.80 ng/L, t=25.731) in the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group, SST (40.05 ± 4.39 ng/L vs. 48.42 ± 5.11 ng/L, t=12.362) in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.01). No serious adverse reactions occurred during the treatment period in both groups. Conclusion:Chaishao-Shugan-Lidan-Paishi Decoction assisted laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the treatment of chronic cholecystitis with gallstones can improve the clinical symptoms, inhibit inflammation, improve gastrointestinal function, improve clinical efficacy.
