Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of Jiuwei Pingzhi Jiaonang on cardiac function, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and blood lipids in patients with chronic cardiac failure (CHF). Methods Seventy-eight patients were randomly assigned to two groups. The control group (38 cases) was treated with angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor, ?-receptor inhibitor, digoxin and diuretic, and the treated group (40 cases) with the above treatment plus Jiuwei Pingzhi Jiaonang for six months. The changes of cardiac function and serum hs-CRP were measured by echocardiograph and enhanced immunoturbidimetry respectively before and after treatment. Results Compared with those before treatment, the NYHA cardiac function grade, the left ventricular dimension end diastole and the left ventricular dimension end systole decreased significantly (P
