Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Dyslipidemia is the important risk of cardiac cerebral vascular diseases, such as arthrosclerosis and coronary heart disease, etc.OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical therapeutic effects of tiaozhi zengshou tang (herbal decoction) on intervention of dyslipidemia.DESIGN: Randomized, group controlled observation.SETTING: Department of Oncology, Department of Chinese Medicine and Department of Cardiology of General Hospital of Chinese PLA.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 120 cases from inpatients with dyslipidemia in Department of Chinese Medicine and Department of Cardiology of General Hospital of Chinese PLA and outpatients in Clinic of Blood lipid from February 2002 to January 2004.METHODS: Totally 120 cases of dyslipidemia were randomized into 3 groups. In Chinese herb group (43 cases), tiaozhi zengshou tang (herbal decoction) was prescribed, one dose/d, taking separately before breakfast and dinner. In western drug group (40 cases), pravastatin sodium was prescribed, 10 mg/tablet, 1 tablet/d, taking orally before sleep at night. Integrative group (37 cases) both pravastatin sodium and herbal decoction were prescribed, the dosage, composition and administration were same as previous. The treatment lasted 8 weeks, and then, the therapeutic effects on changes of blood lipid and harmful effects were observed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparisons of therapeutic effects and harmful effects among groups.RESULTS: 120 cases were employed in the experiment, but 27 of those were dropped out due to loss of contact and absent re-visiting in time. Total parison of therapeutic effects among groups: The effective rates in Chinese herb group and western drug group were similar (81%, 80%, P ＞ 0.05),changes of blood lipid series before and after treatment in each group: In Chinese herb group, triglyceride (TG) (2.59t1.64) mmol/L was reduced to (1.56±0.72) mmol/L, serum total cholesterol (TC) (5.30±1.71) mmol/L was reduced to (4.35±0.85) mmol/L (P ＜ 0.01) and HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-Ch)(1.32±0.37) mmol/L was increased to (1.50±0.22) mmol/L (P ＜ 0.05). In western drug group, TG (2.84±1.50) mmol/L was reduced to (2.04±0.98) mmol/L,serum TC (5.50±1.22) mmol/L was reduced to (4.71±0.89) mmol/L (P ＜ 0.05,P ＜ 0.01) and APoA1 (1.24±0.21) g/L was increased to (1.49±0.15) g/L (P ＜ 0.01). In integrative group, the therapeutic effects were significant in re ducing TG, TC, LDL-Ch and APoB and increasing APoA1 and HDL-Ch harmful effects in Chinese herb group were less than western drug group (1 case, 7 cases).CONCLUSION: Tiaozhi zengshou tang provides definitely clinical therapeutic effects in dyslipidemia and presents low incident of harmful effects.
