Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of Gandou decoction (GDD) by analyzing theclinical efficacy of GDD combined with speech training on the treatment of dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat in Wilson's disease (WD), so as to provide more clinical data and theoretical support for the selection of appropriate treatment schemes for WD patients with dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat. MethodA total of 60 eligible WD patients with dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat were selected and divided into a control group and a treatment group according to the random grouping method, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with speech training + sodium dimercaptopropanesulfonate (DMPS), and the treatment group was combined with GDD on the basis of the control group, with eight days as a course of treatment for 32 days. The total clinical effectiveness rate (Goldstein clinical classification), dysarthria grading assessment from China Rehabilitation Research Center, TCM syndrome scores, 24-hour urine copper content, and modified Frenchay dysarthria rating scale scores of the two groups were compared before and after treatment. ResultAfter treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 90.0% (27/30), and that of the control group was 70.0% (21/30). The total effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (Z=-1.986,P<0.05). After treatment, the modified Frenchay dysarthria score, dysarthria grading assessment from China Rehabilitation Research Center, and 24-h urine copper in the two groups were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the TCM syndrome score was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the control group after treatment, except for the respiratory and jaw score, the modified Frenchay dysarthria score of the observation group was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). The dysarthria grading from China Rehabilitation Research Center and 24-h urine copper content were significantly increased (P<0.01), and the observation group had better efficacy. During the study period, there were no serious adverse reactions such as fever, rash, oral and eyelid mucosal swelling, exfoliative dermatitis, vomiting, diarrhea, or allergic shock during copper excretion treatment of DPMS and oral administration of GDD. ConclusionGDD combined with speech training can improve the symptoms and efficacy of WD patients with dysarthria with endoretention of damp-heat and enhance the patients' living standard to a certain extent, which can be widely used in clinics.
