Additive and Subtraction Effect of Shenqi Shenqi Wan on Urodynamics and Neuromodulation in Patients with Overactive Bladder
Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of addition and subtraction treatment of Shenqi Shenqi Wan on overactive bladder (OAB) and investigate its effects on urodynamics
urine nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Method: One hundred and eight patients were randomly divided into control group (54 cases) and observation group (54 cases) with the use of random number. In the control group
patients got Tolterodine 2 mg/time
2 times/days. On the basis of treatment in the control group
the patients in observation group additionally got Shenqi Shenqi Wan
1 dose/day. The treatment course was eight weeks in both groups. Daily urinating dairy (urination frequency in 24 h
nocturnal urination frequency
urinal urgency frequency
and urinal leakage frequency) was recorded. Before and after treatment
the symptoms of overactive bladder were assessed with overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS)
Indevus Urgency Severity Scale (IUSSU)
and the scores of main symptoms and kidney deficiency. Overactive bladder questionnaire (OAB-q) was used to evaluate the quality of life before and after treatment. Before and after treatment
the maximum flow rate (MFR)
post-void residual volume (PVR)
volume at urgent desire (VUD)
volume at first desire (VFD)
and other urodynamic indexes. NGF and BDNF were detected before and after treatment
and its ratio to urinary creatinine (UCr) (NGF/UCr) was calculated. Result: The total clinical efficacy was 92.59% in observation group
higher than 75.93% in control group (χ2=5.654
P<0.05). The urination frequency in 24 h
nocturnal urination frequency
urinal urgency frequency
and urinal leakage frequency in observation group were all less than those in control group (P<0.01). The scores of OABSS
IUSS
the main symptoms and kidney deficiency in observation group were all lower than those in control group (P<0.01). Scores of OAB-q scale were lower than those in control group
and the 4 dimension scores such as coping style were higher than those in control group (P<0.01). After treatment
the levels of NGF
BDNF
NGF/UCr and BDNF/UCr in the observation group were all lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion: Addition and subtraction therapy of Shenqi Wan combined with Tolterodine can ameliorate clinical symptoms and detrusor function
improve quality of life
regulate urodynamic index as well as NGF and BDNF levels in the treatment of kidney deficiency type OAB.
