One course of treatment lasted four weeks in both groups and each group was observed for 2 courses. The clinical symptoms, vital signs, urinary albumin excretion rate (UAER), and 24 h urinary proteinwere observed. Results The treatment group showed significantly higher effective rate (93.34%vs.73.33%) than that in the control groupa(χ2=8.640,P=0.003). TheWenyang-Gushen-Huayu decoction significantly improved the symptoms of waist chills (2.47 ± 1.11vs.2.92 ± 1.36,t=1.986), edema of face and feet (1.81 ± 0.96vs.2.14 ± 1.01,t=5.165), fatigue of the gods (2.83 ± 1.12vs.3.51 ± 1.18,t=3.237), UAER (326.4 ± 98.7μg/minvs. 421.5 ± 185.6μg/min;t=3.504) and UP (0.7 ± 0.33 g/24hvs. 1.0 ± 0.37 g/24h;t=1.845).ConclusionsTheWenyang-Gushen-Huayu decoction could improve the symptoms and reduce UAER of DN patients.
