Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of therapeutic method of eliminating phlegm, tranquilizing and calming wind on essential hypertension (EH) with accumulation of phlegm-wetness and influence on biochemical parameters. Methods One hundred cases of EH were selected and randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group (50 cases for each group). The two groups were given the same western treatment. The therapeutic method of eliminating phlegm, tranquilizing and calming wind (with recipe of eliminating phlegm, tranquilizing and calming wind) was given to the treatment group additionally. The course of treatment was 60 days. Grade of phlegm-wetness syndrome, blood pressure (BP), rhythm of the heart (HR), blood lipid, uric acid (UA), blood-glucose, fasting insulin and C-reactive protein of the two groups before and after treatment were observed and compared. Results BP in the two groups were improved after treatment, and BP in the treatment group was improved more than that in the control group (SBP P=0.000, DBP P =0.049). HR in the treatment group was improved notably than that in the control group (P =0.000). After treatment, the blood-glucose, fasting insulin and C-reactive protein in the treatment group were improved notably compared with those in the control group (the former P =0.001, the latter two P=0.000). UA, TC, LDL-C and HDL-C in the treatment group after treatment were improved in comparison with those before treatment (P =0.000). Conclusion On the basis of western treatment, the therapeutic method of eliminating phlegm, tranquilizing and calming wind can improve BP, HR and C-reactive protein in the patients of EH with accumulation of phlegm-wetness, and it can probably improve the blood lipid and UA to some extent.
