Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical effect of corticosteroids combined with Chinese medicine sequential therapy of Guishao Dihuang pill and Yupingfeng granules on children nephrotic syndrome (NS) with yin deficiency of liver and kidney.Methods Fifty patients (the loss of children during the course of treatment were not included in the statistical analysis) with definitely diagnosed NS accompanied by yin deficiency of the liver and kidney admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical University from January 2012 to June 2016 were enrolled,and they were divided into control group and observation group by random number table,25 cases in each group.Conventional treatment of western medicine and long-term treatment of corticosteroids were given to the two groups.In addition,sequential therapy of Guishao Dihuang pills and Yupingfeng granules was given to the observation group on the bases of conventional treatment.The changes of platelet aggregation rate (PAT),cholesterol,cortisol,T cell subsets CD3,CD4,CD4/CD8 were observed before and after treatment for 8 weeks and 6 months,then the clinical efficacy and infection,etc.complications were compared between the two groups.Results There were no statistical significant differences in cholesterol,cortisol and curative effect compared between the two groups before treatment and after treatment for 8 weeks and 6 months (all P ＞ 0.05).Mter treatment for 8 weeks and 6 months,the PAT,cholesterol,cortisol of two groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment,while CD3,CD4 were obviously higher than those before treatment,and the degrees of changes of PAT,CD3,CD4 in the observation group were more remarkable than those of the control group [PAT:treatment after 8 weeks was (63.01 ± 6.99)％ vs.(66.62 ± 4.65)％,treatment after 6 months was (51.42 ± 7.74)％ vs.(57.01 ± 6.77)％,CD3:treatment after 8 weeks was 0.56 ± 0.06 vs.0.52± 0.06,treatment after 6 months was 0.61 ± 0.05 vs.0.58 ± 0.03,CD4:treatment after 8 weeks was 0.33 ± 0.06 vs.0.30 ± 0.05,treatment after 6 months was 0.39 ± 0.05 vs.0.33 ± 0.06,all P ＜ 0.05].CD4/CD8 ratio was significantly higher in observation group after treatment for 8 weeks and 6 months than those before therapy (1.68 ± 0.76,1.82 ± 0.95 vs.1.16 ± 0.67,both P ＜ 0.05);the number of patients with infection in observation group was obviously lower than that of the control group (86 cases vs.175 cases,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The therapeutic effect of corticosteroids combined with Chinese medicine sequential therapy of Guishao Dihuang pills and Yupingfeng granules for treatment of children NS with yin deficiency of the liver and kidney is better than that of using western medicine therapy alone,as the combined sequential therapy has good effects on reduction of infection,anti-thrombosis and elevation of immunity.
