WANG Xiang, TAN Ye-nong, XIE Liu, et al. Observation of Modified Erlong Zuoci Wan Combined with Acoustic Tinnitus with Deficiency of Kidney Essence and Antioxidation Effect[J]. Chinese journal of experimental traditional medical formulae, 2018, 24(23): 189-193. DOI: 10.13422/j.cnki.syfjx.20182338.
Objective:To discuss the clinical efficacy of modified Erlong Zuoci Wan combined with acoustic therapy for tinnitus (deficiency of kidney essence)
and investigate its effects on superoxide dismutase (SOD)
malondialdehyde (MDA)
glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC). Method:Seventy-nine patients were randomly divided into control group (39 cases) and observation group (40 cases) by random number table. Patients in control group got acoustic therapy. Based on the treatment in control group
patients in observation group additionally received modified Erlong Zuoci Wan. The treatment course was 3 months in both groups. Before and after treatment
scores of tinnitus severity
tinnitus handicap inventory (THI)
self-rating anxiety scale (SAS)
self-rating scale of sleep (SRSS) and deficiency of kidney essence were graded. Levels of SOD
MDA
GSH-Px and T-AOC were detected both before and after treatment. Result:In rank sum test
the clinical efficacy in observation group was superior to that in control group(Z=1.936
P<0.05). The degree of tinnitus disability in observation group was lighter than that in control group (P<0.05). Scores of tinnitus severity
THI
SAS
SRSS and deficiency of kidney essence symptoms in observation group were lower than those in control group (P<0.01). After treatment. Levels of MDA was lower and levels of SOD
GSH-Px and T-AOC were higher than those in control group (P<0.01). Conclusion:Based on acoustic therapy
modified Erlong Zuoci Wan can relieve tinnitus severity and the degree of tinnitus disability
ameliorate clinical symptoms
improve anxiety and sleeping
and it can also resist oxygen free radical damage
with better clinical efficacy than pure acoustic therapy.
