RESUMO
.Fructus akebiae extract (FAE) is a commonly used drug in the clinical treatment of liver cancer. FAE has many pharmacological activities, such as liver protection, anti-tumor, spasmolysis, pain relief and antifungal activity. Its clinical application is extensive, so far no toxic reports have been reported, and new drugs can be developed. This study was designed to investigate the therapeutic effect of predictor extract on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). 180 patients with NAFLD were randomly divided into 2 groups. The control group was treated with ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), and the experimental group was treated with Fructus akebiae extract combined with ursodeoxycholic acid. The results showed that the comprehensive clinical efficacy of the treatment group was 95.56%, which was higher than that of the control group (93.33%), and P < 0.01. In the experimental group, 63 cases (70%) were improved after one course of treatment, main symptom score as (5.09 ±3.98), body mass index as (24.65±3.86), and liver CT value increased. It can be seen that the addition of FAE can significantly improve the clinical symptoms and serum biochemical indicators such as ALT, AST, TG and TC in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, which is supported by some histological evidence. These findings suggest that FAE combined with Ursodeoxycholic Acid is safe and effective in the treatment of fatty liver.
