Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the effect of Mashao Pingchuan decoction on traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptoms， quality of life， peripheral blood eosinophils （Eos） and serum inflammatory factors interleukin-6 （IL-6） and interleukin-8 （IL-8） in patients with cold asthma syndrome of bronchial asthma. Method:A total of 67 patients with cold asthma who attended the Respiratory Clinic of Anhui Provincial Hospital of TCM from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group. The control group was given basic treatments such as budesonide formoterol powder inhalation， and the observation group was given Mashao Pingchuan decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups intervened for 7 consecutive days. Observe and record the general condition， TCM symptom score， asthma control questionnaire （ACQ）-7 score， Marks-asthma quality of life questionnaire （Marks-AQLQ） score of the two groups of asthma patients， the peripheral blood Eos count was measured by hematology analyzer， and the serum IL-6 and IL-8 levels of the subjects were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Result:The total effective rate of TCM symptoms in the two groups was 100%（30/30）， and the effect in the observation group was more obvious （Z=-2.169，P<0.05）. After treatment， the scores of TCM symptoms in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment （P<0.01）. The scores of phlegm in the throat， expectoration， cough， and chills in the observation group were lower than those in the control group （P<0.05）. After treatment， the ACQ-7 scores and Marks-AQLQ scores of the two groups were significantly lower than before treatment （P<0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference between the observation group and the ACQ-7 scores and Marks-AQLQ scores. After treatment， the peripheral blood Eos counts and serum IL-6 and IL-8 levels in the two groups were significantly lower than before treatment （P<0.01）. Peripheral blood Eos count and serum IL-6 and IL-8 contents in observation group were lower than those in control group （P<0.05）. Conclusion:Mashao Pingchuan decoction combined with budesonide formoterol powder inhalation can effectively improve the clinical effectiveness of asthma （cold asthma）， improve the symptoms of asthma in TCM， ACQ-7 score， Marks-AQLQ score， peripheral blood Eos count， serum inflammatory factor content.
