ABSTRACT
To investigate the influence of Angelica Four Inverse Decoction on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) nerve conduction velocity and advanced glycation end products (AEGs), Cystatin C (Cys-C) and homocysteine (Hcy) levels, 78 cases of DPN patients admitted in our hospital from March 2015 to January 2017 were selected and divided into two groups by random number table method. The two groups adopted the same basic treatment, on the basis of which, the control group was added mecobalamin tablets treatment, while the observation group was given Angelica Four Inverse Decoction. The curative effect of Chinese medicine syndrome, the scores of toronto clinical scoring system (TCSS), nerve conduction velocity and the change of serum AEGs, Cys-C and Hcy levels before and after treatment were recorded and compared between the two groups and then the safety of medicine were evaluated between the two groups. 4 weeks after the treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 89.7%, significantly higher than 71.8% of the control group (P < 0.05) . Compared with those before receiving treatment, the SNCV and MNCV values of the common peroneal nerve and median nerve both significantly increased in the two groups 4 weeks after the treatment (P < 0.01); the improvement of nerve conduction velocity of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group (P < 0.01) . 4 weeks after the treatment, TCSS score and serum AEGs, Cys-C, Hcy levels were all significantly lower than those before receiving the treatment in the two groups (P < 0.01); compared with that of the control group in the same time period, the improvement effect of TCSS score and serum AEGs, Cys-C, Hcy levels were more significant in the observation group 4 weeks after the treatment (P < 0.01) . There were no obvious adverse reactions in the two groups. As a result, Angelica Four Inverse Decoction applied to DPN patients can more effectively relieve clinical symptoms and signs, improve nerve conduction velocity, reduce the level of AEGs, and improve microcirculation with remarkable curative effect and high safety.
