Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of therapy of resolving blood stasis and tranquilizing mind in the treatment of insomnia with internal blockage of blood stasis type.Methods A parallel randomized controlled trial was conducted on 88 cases of insomnia patients with internal blockage of blood stasis type who admitted to Bao'an Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January 2024 to June 2024.The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,with 44 cases in each group.The observation group was treated with the self-made Huayu Anshen Prescription(modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction)orally following the therapy of resolving blood stasis and tranquilizing mind,while the control group was treated with Dexzopiclone Tablets orally.The course of treatment for the two groups covered four weeks.The changes in the scores of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI),Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),and Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)in the two groups before and after treatment were observed,and then the clinical efficacy and medication safety of the patients in the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)After four weeks of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 86.36%(38/44)and that of the control group was 70.45%(31/44),and the intergroup comparison showed that the clinical efficacy of the observation group was significantly superior to that of the control group,the difference being statistically significant(χ2=8.080,P<0.05).(2)After treatment,the scores of TCM syndrome,PSQI,SDS,and SAS of patients in the two groups were all significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.01),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group,the differences all being statistically significant(P<0.05).(3)During the treatment,there were no obvious adverse reactions occurred in the two groups,with higher safety.Conclusion Therapy of resolving blood stasis and tranquilizing mind for treating insomnia with internal blockage of blood stasis type can effectively alleviate patients'clinical symptoms,improve their sleep quality and relieve depression and anxiety,with stronger clinical efficacy and higher safety.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Ruanjian Sanjie Pills in the treatment of patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis in compensatory stage differentiated as blood stasis blocking collaterals syndrome.Methods A total of 80 cases of patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis in compensatory stage admitted to Bao'an Hospital of Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to April 2024 were randomly divided into the trial group and the control group,40 cases in each group.The control group was treated with oral administration of Entecavir for hepatitis B virus(HBV),and the trial group was treated with Ruanjian Sanjie Pills on the basis of treatment for the control group,the course of treatment covering one year.Before and after treatment,the two groups were observed in the changes of routine blood test indicators of white blood cell count(WBC)and platelet count(PLT),liver function indicators[albumin(ALB),total bilirubin(TBIL),alanine transaminase(ALT)and aspartate transaminase(AST)],prothrombin time(PT),liver stiffness measurement(LSM),and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and safety were evaluated.Results(1)There were three cases in the control group and four cases in the trial group fell off,and eventually 37 cases in the control group and 36 cases in the trial group were enrolled in the efficacy statistics.(2)After one year of treatment,the total effective rate of the trial group was 91.67%(33/36)and that of the control group was 67.57%(25/37),and the intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the therapeutic efficacy of the trial group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.05).(3)After treatment,the routine blood test indicators of WBC and PLT in the trial group were increased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),while the WBC and PLT in the control group did not change significantly(P>0.05).The post-treatment WBC and PLT in the trial group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).(4)After treatment,the ALB of patients in the two groups was increased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05),and the PT value of patients in the two groups and the ALT of the trial group were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),but TBIL and AST of the two groups and ALT of the control group did not differ from those before treatment(P>0.05).The comparison between the two groups showed that the decrease of PT value in the trial group was significantly superior to that of the control group(P>0.05),but no statistically significant differences of ALT,AST,TBIL and ALB were shown between the two groups(P>0.05).(5)After treatment,the LSM of patients in the two groups was decreased compared with that before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05).(6)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of the two groups of patients were decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the decrease in the trial group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05).(7)There were no significant adverse reactions or adverse events occurring in the two groups during the treatment.Conclusion Ruanjian Sanjie Pills can improve the clinical symptoms of patients with hepatitis B-related cirrhosis in the compensatory stage,improve the coagulation function,reduce the hardness of the liver,and slow down the process of cirrhosis,with satisfactory efficacy and good safety.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of Xiaozhi Tea(composed of Eupatorii Herba,Nelumbinis Folium,Chrysanthemi Flos,Cassiae Semen,Crataegi Fructus,bran-fried Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma,Poria,Pseudostellariae Radix,Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma Praeparata cum Melle)combined with Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets for the treatment of hyperlipidemia patients with turbid phlegm obstruction syndrome.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted in 200 hyperlipidemia patients with turbid phlegm obstruction syndrome who visited the outpatient department of Shenzhen Bao'an Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Group from September 2023 to September 2024.The patients were equally divided into a trial group and a control group based on the treatment regimen,with 100 cases in each group.The control group received oral use of Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets alone,while the trial group received Xiaozhi Tea in addition to Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets orally,both groups were treated for 8 weeks.Changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores and lipid profiles of total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and safety of the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)There were 3 patients in the control group dropping out due to lack of follow-up data,leaving 197 patients who eventually completed the study,100 cases in the trial group and 97 cases in the control group.(2)After 8 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate in the trial group was 97.00%(97/100)and that in the control group was 87.63%(85/97).The intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the trial group showed significantly stronger efficacy than the control group(P＜0.05).(3)Both groups exhibited significant reductions in TCM syndrome scores after treatment in comparison with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and a more pronounced reduction was presented in the trial group(P＜0.05).(4)Both groups showed decreased TC,TG,and LDL-C levels(P＜0.05)and increased HDL-C level after treatment in comparison with those before treatment(P＜0.05).The trial group demonstrated more obvious reduction of TC,TG,LDL-C,and more obvious elevation of HDL-C than the control group(P＜0.05).(5)In terms of safety,no severe adverse reactions occurred in either group.The incidence of adverse reactions in the trial group was 1.00%(1/100)and that in the control group was 2.06%(2/97),with no statistically significant difference between groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Xiaozhi Tea combined with Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets exerts certain efficacy in treating hyperlipidemia with turbid phlegm obstruction syndrome,and is effective on significantly improving lipid profiles and clinical symptoms.The combination therapy demonstrates superior efficacy compared to Atorvastatin Calcium Tablets alone.
