A total of 340 inpatients, aged 40-79 years, with exacerbating CHF from 10 hospitals were enrolled and randomly allocated within 24 h of admission. The trial included three intervention periods. During hospitalization, the control group received western medication for CHF and the treatment group received Danhong injection with Shenfu injection or Shenmai injection. After discharge,all patients were treated with Qiliqiangxin capsules and Buyiqiangxin tablets or a placebo for 6 months. After the 6-month intervention, both groups received only continuous western medication. The primary endpoint was all-cause mortality.The efficacy assessments were as follows: B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP), Lee's HF score, the 6-minute walking test(6 MWT), left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), and the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire(MLHFQ). The safety assessments were as follows: blood and urine routine examination, hepatic and renal function, electrolytes in blood and adverse events.RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the treatment group showed a 30.99% reduction in all-cause mortality and an improved survival rate.The treatment group showed greater improvement in 6 MWT(P = 0.02) than the control group on discharge, after 12-month follow-up, there was a time-group interaction for MLHFQ(P = 0.03). Incidence rate of adverse events and other relevant safety indexes were not statistically significant between the two groups.CONCLUSION: Western medication plus TCM treatment can increase 6-minute walking distance(improve exercise tolerance) and quality of life with heart failure patients.展开更多

METHODS: 50 patients with coronary heart disease and hyperlipidemia were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group, with 25 cases in each group, who were treated in the East Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. From March 2015 to April 2016. Patients in the experimental group were given the Huatan Huoxue Formula combined with atorvastatin with 8 weeks; while the control group was just treated with atorvastatin. Blood Lipid changes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Blood Lipid levels were significantly improved in the two groups after treatment. Compared with the control group, the levels of TG, TC and LDL-C in the experimental group were decreased, while the HDL-C was increased more significantly. The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS: The effect of the Huatan Huoxue Formula combined with atorvastatin on coronary heart disease and hyperlipidemia patients is more significant.展开更多
