Clinical Efficacy of Yinchenhao Tang Combined with Sinisan in Treating Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease with Hyperhomocysteinemia
To investigate the clinical efficacy of Yinchenhao Tang combined with Sinisan(YCSN) on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy).
Method:
2
Totally 126 cases of NAFLD with HHcy in Beijing Shichahai Community Health Service Center were randomly divided into NAFLD control group
traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) group
and modern medicine group
with 42 cases in each group. The TCM group was treated with YCSN orally
the modern medicine group was treated with polyene phosphatidylcholine capsules and folic acid tablets
and the NAFLD control group was treated with placebo. The course of treatment was 3 months. The clinical efficiency
liver function
Hcy
blood lipid
oxidative inflammation index and symptom score in two groups were observed before and after treatment.
Result:
2
The total effective rate of the TCM group was 92.86%
while that of the modern medicine group was 88.10%. There was no significant difference in the clinical efficiency between the two groups. There was no difference in the indexes of groups before treatment. After treatment
alanine aminotransferase (ALT)
aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
Hcy
total cholesterol (TC)
total triglyceride (TG)
low-density lipoprotein (LDL)
malondialdehyde (MDA)
high-sensitive C reactive protein (hs-CRP)
serum creatinine (SCr)
blood urea nitrogen (BUN)
and symptom scores in the TCM group and the modern medicine group were significantly lower than those before the treatment (
P
<
0.05)
and lower than those in the NAFLD control group (
P
<
0.05); and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and superoxidase dismutase (SOD) in the TCM group and the modern medicine group significantly increased (
P
<
0.05)
and higher than those of NAFLD control group (
P
<
0.05). Compared with the modern medicine group
ALT
Hcy
TC
TG
MDA
hs-CRP
and symptom scores in TCM group were significantly lower than those before the treatment (
P
<
0.05)
while SOD in the TCM group was significantly increased (
P
<
0.05).
Conclusion:
2
YCSN can improve hyperhomocysteinemia
liver function
blood lipid
oxidation and inflammation in patients with NAFLD and HHcy.
