Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Fangxiang Wentong Powder(composed of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Chuanxiong Rhizoma,Alpiniae Officinarum Rhizoma,Piper Longum,and Corydalis Rhizoma)acupoint application combined with Kuanxiong Aerosol in treating female patients with coronary slow flow(CSF)associated angina.Methods After sample size estimation,119 female inpatients diagnosed as CSF associated angina and differentiated as chest-qi obstruction with yang deficiency and cold accumulation syndrome of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)were collected from the cardiovascular departments of the Third People's Hospital of Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine(Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine),Zhanjiang First Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital,and Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from November 2023 to March 2024.Using a table of random numbers,the patients were divided into a treatment group(84 cases)and a control group(35 cases)in a ratio of 5∶2.The control group was treated with Isosorbide Monomitrate Sustained-Release Capsules,while the treatment group was treated with application of Fangxiang Wentong Powder on acupoints of Danzhong(CV17),Gaohuang(BL43),and Xinshu(BL15),together with sublingual administration of Kuanxiong Aerosol.The treatment course for both groups covered 7 days.Before and after treatment,the changes in the simplified Seattle Angina Questionnaire(SAQ-7)scores,Chinese Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cardiovascular Patients(CQQC)scores,6-minute walking distance(6MWD),serum C-reactive protein(CRP)level,and white blood cell-to-mean platelet volume ratio(WMR)were observed.The TCM symptom efficacy was compared between the two groups,and adverse reactions were monitored.Results(1)There were 8 patients withdrew in the treatment group for failing in completing the questionnaires,and 2 patients withdrew in the control group for suffering headaches after taking nitrates.Eventually,109 patients completed the trial,including 76 in the treatment group and 33 in the control group.(2)After 7 days of treatment,the total effective rate for TCM symptom efficacy in the treatment group was 86.84%(66/76),and that in the control group was 72.73%(24/33).The intergroup comparison(tested by the chi-square test)showed that the TCM symptom efficacy in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in the control group.(3)After treatment,both groups showed improvements in the scores of activity limitation and angina frequency items of SAQ-7,and the treatment group also showed improvements in the scores of subjective satisfaction item of SAQ-7(P<0.05).The treatment group's improvements in the scores of activity limitation,angina frequency,and subjective satisfaction items of SAQ-7 were significantly superior to those of the control group(P<0.05).(4)After treatment,the CQQC scores in the treatment group was significantly improved(P<0.05),while no significant improvement was observed in the control group(P>0.05).The improvement of CQQC scores in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05).(5)After treatment,both groups showed improvements in 6MWD(P<0.05),and the improvement in the treatment group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05).(6)After treatment,the serum levels of inflammatory indicators of CRP and WMR in the treatment group were significantly improved(P<0.05),while no significant improvements were presented in the control group(P>0.05).The improvements in serum CRP level and WMR value in the treatment group were significantly superior to those in the control group(P<0.05).(7)No adverse reactions were found in the treatment group,indicating high safety.Conclusion Fangxiang Wentong Powder acupoint application combined with Kuanxiong Aerosol is more effective than Isosorbide Monomitrate Sustained-Release Capsules,improving exercise tolerance,decreasing inflammatory factor levels,and improving the quality of life to some extent during the treatment of female patients with CSF.
