Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Shuxin Jieyu Decoction(composed of Chuangxiong Rhizoma,Angelicae Sinensis Radix,Bupleuri Radix,Paeoniae Radix Alba,Paeoniae Radix Rubra,Curcumae Radix,Ziziphi Spinosae Semen,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma Praeparata cum Melle,Platycladi Semen,Polygoni Multiflori Caulis,Polygalae Radix,Toosendan Fructus,Corydalis Rhizoma,and Albiziae Cortex)in treating coronary heart disease(CHD)with angina pectoris complicated by anxiety disorder in patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome.Methods Sixty patients diagnosed with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome type of CHD with angina pectoris and anxiety disorder were enrolled from the outpatient and inpatient departments of Taihe Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Anhui University of Chinese Medicine between January 2024 and January 2025.Patients were randomly divided into an observation group(n=30)and a control group(n=30)using a random number table method.The control group received conventional CHD treatment and anxiolytic therapy(Flupentixol and Melitracen Tablets),while the observation group additionally received Shuxin Jieyu Decoction.Both groups were treated for 4 weeks.Changes in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale(HAMA)scores were evaluated before and after treatment.The therapeutic effects of angina pectoris,nitroglycerin reduction/cessation rates,and total adverse event rates were compared between the two groups.Results(1)After 4 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate in the observation group was 93.33%(28/30),compared to 73.33%(22/30)in the control group.The intergroup comparison(by Fisher's precision probability test)showed that the observation group's efficacy was significantly superior to that of the control group(P<0.05).(2)After treatment,both groups showed significant reductions in TCM syndrome scores(P<0.05)for symptoms including chest tightness and pain,costal distension,anxiety,palpitations,excessive sighing,irritability,and insomnia.The observation group's reduction was significantly greater than that of the control group(P<0.05).(3)After 4 weeks,the total reduction/discontinuation rate of nitroglycerin was 90.00%(27/30)in the observation group versus 66.67%(20/30)in the control group.The intergroup comparison(by Fisher's precision probability test)showed that the observation group's reduction rate was significantly higher than that of the control group(P<0.05,Fisher's precision probability test).(4)After treatment,both groups exhibited reduced Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale(HAMA)scores(P<0.05),with the observation group showing a significantly greater improvement(P<0.05).(5)The total incidence of adverse reactions was 20.00%(6/30)in the observation group and 23.33%(7/30)in the control group,with no statistically significant difference between groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The combination of Shuxin Jieyu Decoction with conventional western medicine treatment demonstrates superior clinical efficacy compared to conventional western medicine alone in patients with qi stagnation and blood stasis syndrome type of CHD with angina pectoris and anxiety disorder.It effectively alleviates angina symptoms and anxiety disorder,reduces nitroglycerin usage,without increasing adverse effects.
