Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ and Ⅱ made by ourselves are effective in treating bone fracture complicated by soft tissue injury.However,its mechanism is still unclear.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition on the levels of intedeukin 1β(IL-1β) and interleukin 6(IL-6) in serum of patients with closed bone injury-induced soft tissue injury.DESIGN:Randomized controlled observation.SETTING:Wards of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine,the 401 Hospital of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Eighty-eight inpatients with bone fracture at early and moderate stages accompanied by soft tissue injury were chosen as volunteers to be studied in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine,the 401 Hospital of Chinese PLA between February 2000 and February 2002.The involved inpatients were assigned into 2 groups according to the table of random digit:Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ + Ⅱ group (n=45) and Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ group (n=43).Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ was for internal administration,and Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ was for external fumigation.METHODS:①Treatment of bone injury:Both caltrate D pellets and pills for strengthening bone joints were used in two groups.②Treatment of soft tissue injury: In the Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ+ Ⅱ group,Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ was decocted.Each decoction was 450 mL,and was packed into 3 pouches, 150 mL/pouch,three times a day;Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ was decocted.Each decoction was 600 mL,and was packedinto 4 Douches,150 mL/pouch.Four pouches of Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ was diluted by 2 000 mL water,then heated and used for fume-washing, twice a day, 20 to 30 minutes once. Four pouches could be used for fume-washing for 2 days successively. In the Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong compositionⅡgroup, only Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ was used to fume-wash the lesioned region.The concrete method was the same as that in the Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ+Ⅱ group.In each group, ten days were set as one course of treatment,and totally, there are 2 courses of treatment.IL-1β and IL-6 levels in serum of patients were detected by with ELISA kit before.one and two courses after treatment, and compared separately.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Levels of IL-1β and IL-6 in serum of patients in two groups before, one and two courses after treatment.RESULTS: In the eingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ+Ⅱ group,the level of IL-1β and IL-6 was respectively significantly lower after 2 courses of treatment as compared with the previous one and one course after treatment (P＜0.05-0.01), also at the same time point in compared with the Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ group (P＜0.05).In addition, in the Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ+Ⅱ group,the level of IL-1β and IL-6 was respectively significantly decreased after one course of treatment as compared with before treatment (P＜0.05). In the Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅱ group,after 2 courses of treatment,the level of IL-1β was significantly decreased as compared with before treatment, and the level of IL-β was also significantly decreased as compared with before treatment and after one course of treatment (P＜0.05).CONCLUSION: Qingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ+Ⅱ can be used to treat bone fracture accompanied by soft tissue injury by inhibiting the levels of IL-1β and IL-6. The effect of the combination of Oingre Huoxue Xiaozhong composition Ⅰ and Ⅱ is superior to that of each alone.
