Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical curative effect of modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder for mesenteric lymphadenitis in children with spleen deficiency and dampness retention. Methods A multi-center randomized and controlled trial was carried out in 150 cases of mesenteric lymphadenitis in children with spleen deficiency and dampness retention. The patients were randomized into Chinese medicine group, western medicine group and combination group, 50 cases in each group. Chinese medicine group was treated with modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder, western medicine group was treated with Cefaclor for Oral Suspension, and the combination group was treated with modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder plus Cefaclor for Oral Suspension. Before treatment and after treatment for 7 days, one month and 3 months, changes in syndrome manifestations and the size of abdominal mesenteric lymph nodes were monitored. The total effective rate and cure rate of the three groups were compared, and the safety of the regimen was also evaluated. Results (1) In Chinese medicine group, 5 patients dropped out, and a total of 45 cases completed the trial; in western medicine group, 3 patients dropped out, and a total of 47 cases completed the trial; in the combination group, 7 patients dropped out, and a total of 43 casescompleted the trial.(2) The total effective rate of Chinese medicine group and combination group after treatment for 7 days, one month and 3 months was significantly higher than that of western medicine group (P < 0.05), and the cure rate after treatment for one month and 3 months was also significantly higher than that of western medicine group (P<0.01). The differences of total effective rate and cure rate were insignificant between Chinese medicine group and combination group(P>0.05) at various time points.(3) After treatment for 7 days, one month and 3 months, the transverse and longitudinal diameters of mesenteric lymph nodes in Chinese medicine group and combination group were shorter than those of western medicine group (P < 0.05) , but the difference was insignificant between Chinese medicine group and combination group (P>0.05). (4) Except for the drop-out cases, all of the children finished the trial. During the treatment, no obvious adverse reaction was found. Conclusion Modified Qiwei Baizhu Powder exerts certain efficacy for the treatment of mesenteric lymphadenitis in children with spleen deficiency and dampness retention.
