ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of integrative Chinese and Western medical therapy for radiative pneumonia (RP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Eighty patients were randomly assigned to two groups. The treated group (48 patients) was treated by Shenqi Fuzheng Injection (SFI), antibiotics and short-term pulse therapy with high efficient hormone, while the control group (32 patients) was treated only by antibiotic and hormone pulse therapy. Changes of symptoms, signs, quality of life and subsets of T-lymphocytes (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and CD4+/CD8+ ratio) were observed before and after 20-day treatment.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The chief symptom disappearance time was shorter (P < 0.05), Karnofsky performance score was better (P < 0.05) in the treated group after treatment as compared with those in the control group. Moreover, the immune function was improved in the treated group after treatment (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>SFI combined with antibiotics and short-term pulse therapy with high efficient hormone has a good effect for radiative pneumonia, it could also increase patients' quality of life as well.</p>
