Effect of Tongluoling Tincture Combined with Intermediate Frequency Import in Patients with Phlegm-blood Stasis Type Rheumatoid Arthritis
Objective: To observe the clinical curative effect and the mechanism of Tongluoling tincture combined with intermediate frequency import in patients with phlegm-blood stasis type rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Method: The 120 patients with phlegm-blood stasis type RA were randomly divided into control group (60 cases) and observation group (60 cases) by random number table.Both groups took joint function exercise according to guide
and patients in control group received intermediate frequency import of lidocaine injection
20 min/time
1 time/day
while patients in observation group received intermediate frequency import of Tongluoling tincture
20 min/time
1 time/day.The swollen joint count
tender joint count
morning stiff time
and mean grip strength were observed before and after treatment in both groups; numeric pain scale (NPS) scores
health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) scores
disease activity score using 28 joint counts (DAS28) were recorded before and after treatment in two groups.Levels of interleukin (IL)-6
IL-10
tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α
and bone alkaline phosphatase (BAP) were detected before and after treatment.In addition
the adverse reactions were observed in two groups. Result: The total rate of clinical effect was 88.33% in observation group
higher than 71.67% in control group (χ2=5.208
P < 0.05).After treatment
swollen joint count
tender joint count
and morning stiff time in observation group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.01); mean grip strength in observation group was higher than that in control group (P < 0.01); scores of NPS
HAQ and DAS28 in observation group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.01); levels of vascular endothelium growth factor (VEGF)
TNF-α
and BAP in observation group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.01)
while level of IL-10 in observation group was higher than that in control group (P < 0.01).There were no obvious adverse reactions in both groups of patients. Conclusion: Based on joint function exercise
Tongluoling tincture combined with intermediate frequency import has significant clinical efficacy and safety in treatment of phlegm-blood stasis type RA
and the mechanism of action may be related with decreasing VEGF
