Acupoint Herbal Patching of Ding Zi Gao (定紫膏) in Treating Moderate to Severe Cyclic Mastalgia with Liver Constraint and Qi Stagnation Syndrome: A Randomized, Double‐blind, Placebo‐controlled Clinical Trial
(定紫膏, DZG) in treating mode-rate to severe cyclic mastalgia with liver constraint and
qi
stagnation syndrome.
Methods
2
Sixty women of moderate to severe cyclic mastalgia with liver constraint and
qi
stagnation syndrome were randomly divided into 30 cases in the treatment group and 30 cases in the control group. The treatment group was given acupoint herbal patching (AHP) of DZG, starting from the 3rd day after menstruation, 6-8 h each time, once a day for 14 days. The control group was given AHP of placebo, in the same administration way with the treatment group. The changes in VAS scores before the treatment and on the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day after treatment were assessed. The McGiLL score of breast, the comprehensive score of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) systemic symptoms, the overall breast color Doppler ultrasonography score before and after treatment were assessed, and the clinical effect and safety were determined.
Results
2
Two cases in the treatment group dropped out, while all 30 cases in the control group completed the study. VAS scores in the treatment group decreased on the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day (
P
<0.05) after treatment finished, while that in the control group decreased on the 5th and 7th day (
P
<0.05). Lower VAS scores were found in the treatment group than the control group on the 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th day after treatment finish(
P
<0.05). After treatment, the breast McGiLL score and the TCM systemic symptoms score significantly decreased in the treatment group (
P
<0.05), and were significantly lower than those in the control group (
P
<0.05). The overall breast color Doppler ultrasonography score significantly decreased in the treatment group after treatment (
P
<0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference between groups (
P
>0.05). Total effective rate in the treatment group was 96.55%, significantly higher than 75.86% in the control group(
P
<0.01). No serious adverse events were observed in either group. Seven cases in the treatment group and four cases in the control group showed allergy to the adhesive tape around the acupoints, and the difference between groups was not statistically significant (
P
>0.05).
Conclusion
2
AHP of DZG can improve breast pain and swelling, increase clinical effect, and show safety in the treatment of moderate to severe cyclic mastalgia with liver constraint and
qi
stagnation syndrome.
