Abstract:
Objective By applying the factorial design to ascertain the best temperature and time of bathing using Xiaoyin Prescription 2 in treating patients with psoriasis vulgaris .Methods According to the inclusion criteria 120 cases with psoriasis vulgaris were selected .They were randomly divided into 4 treatment groups with 30 people for each group .Group 1 ( A1 B1 ) was treated with 42℃bathing for 30 minutes;Groups 2 ( A1 B2 ) was treated with 42℃bathing for 20 minutes;Groups 3 ( A2 B1 ) was treated with 38℃bathing for 30 minutes;Groups 4 (A2B2) was treated with 38℃bathing for 20 minutes.All of the patients were investigated by the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index ( PASI ) , Dermatology Life Quality Index ( DLQI ) and Self Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS).Results The PASI score, DLQI index and SAS score of the 120 patients were (11.33 ± 5.68), (4.78 ±3.50), (24.23 ±6.72), respectively, after the treatment, and (25.51 ±10.26), (11.60 ± 5.70), (42.37 ±8.40), respectively, before the treatment, which were significantly different (t=23.105, 17.174, 40.558, respectively;P<0.01).For Group 1, the PASI score difference before and after treatment was (16.59 ±6.46) that was significantly higher than the other three groups (F=4.242,P<0.01).The score difference of DLQI and SAS were (8.27 ±5.15), (19.93 ±4.73), higher than Group 4 whose score were (5.47 ±3.25), (16.30 ±4.82).The differences were significant (P <0.05).There was no significant interaction for time and temperature and no significant main effect of time factor ( P>0.05 ) .Only the main effect of temperature was statistically significant ( F =11.380, 6.335, 9.168, respectively; P <0.01 ). Conclusions The main effect of bathing temperature to treat patients with psoriasis vulgaris is higher than the bathing time in PASI, DLQI and SAS.Taking into account the time factor and expenditure for the patients , a herbal bathing temperature of 42 ℃ for 20 minutes is more reasonable and is worthy of promoting in clinical situations .
