Abstract:
AIM: To explore the treatment of subclinical hepatic encephalopathy(SHE) by traditional Chinese medicine. METHODS: Sixty patients with SHE were randomized into two groups: treatment group with 30 cases treated by Qingkai Granule and control group with another 30 cases treated by lactulose.They were all treated for two weeks.The evoked potentials(Eps) were measured,moreover,number connection test(NCT) and digit symbol test(DST) were conducted. RESULTS: In treatment group,the period for NCT was shorter and the DST also improved apparently;peak latency(PL) and interpeak latency(IPL) of SEP and AEPs were shorter to different degrees,with significant differences among groups. CONCLUSION: Qingkai Granule acts to effectively increase the learning,memory and space cognitive capacities in patients,and improves the nerve electrophysiology in patients.
