Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of modified Huanglian Wendantang on cardiovascular risk factors in patients with metabolic syndrome under the guidance of treating disease before its onset. MethodsA total of 82 patients with metabolic syndrome treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine from July 2023 to July 2024 were selected and allocated into an observation group (41 cases) and a control group (41 cases) by the random number table method. The control group received routine treatment, and the observation group was treated with modified Huanglian Wendantang on the basis of routine treatment. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. The therapeutic effects on TCM symptoms after treatment in the two groups were evaluated. The levels of obesity degree indicators, blood pressure indicators, glucose and lipid metabolism indicators, inflammatory factors, and vascular endothelial function indicators before and after treatment in the two groups were measured, and the treatment safety was evaluated. ResultsAfter treatment, the total response rate of TCM symptoms in the observation group was 97.56% (40/41), which was higher than that (87.80%, 36/41) in the control group (χ2=5.205, P<0.05). After treatment, both groups showed declines (P<0.05) in systolic blood pressure (SBD), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2 h PG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting insulin (FINS), Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), leptin (LEP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), endothelin-1 (ET-1), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Moreover, the declines in the observation group were more obvious than those in the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). After treatment, both groups showed elevated levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), adiponectin (ADP), nitric oxide (NO), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) (P<0.05), and the above indexes in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionUnder the guidance of the thought of treating disease before its onset, modified Huanglian Wendantang was used to treat patients with metabolic syndrome. The decoction improved the clinical efficacy by ameliorating IR to improve insulin sensitivity, reducing inflammation, and protecting the vascular endothelial function. It inhibits cardiovascular risk factors without inducing adverse reactions, being worthy of clinical application and promotion.
