Jianpi Tongluo Formula (健脾通络方) in the Treatment of 58 Cases of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis with Spleen Deficiency and Collateral Stasis Pattern: A Randomized Controlled Trial
(健脾通络方, JPTLF) in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) with spleen deficiency and collateral stasis pattern.
Methods
2
Fifty-eight IPF patients of spleen deficiency and collateral stasis pattern were randomly divided into 29 cases in TCM group and 29 cases in control group at the ratio of 1∶1. TCM group was given JPTLF (10.7 g per bag) orally, two bags each time,twice daily, while control group was given N-acetylcysteine (NAC) granules, 0.6 g each time, three times daily, and both were given routine non-drug treatment including oxygen therapy and pulmonary rehabilitation. Before and after 3 months of treatment, indicators were observed, such as the primary efficacy indicators including single TCM symptom scores (wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, shortness of breath, Velcro rales, cough) and total TCM syndrome score,as well as the secondary efficacy indicators including high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scores (L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6 grading scores and total score), 6-minute walk test (6MWT), St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) scores (symptom score, activity score, impact score and total score), and serum levels of inflammatory factors [interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interferon gamma(IFN-γ)]. And the adverse reactions were observed.
Results
2
Totally, 51 patients including 26 patients in TCM group and 25 patients in control group completed the trial. After treatment, TCM group had reduced wheezing, cough scores, total TCM syndrome score, total HRCT score, total SGRQ score, TNF-α level, and increased 6MWT (
P
<0.05 or
P
<0.01), while the control gorup had decreased total TCM syndrome score (
P
<0.01). There was significantly lower total TCM syndrome score in the TCM group than the control group (
P
<0.01). There was no adverse reaction in both groups.
Conclusion
2
JPTLF could improve the cough and wheezing symptoms, and increase exercise endurance and quality of life in the treatment of IPF of spleen deficiency and collateral stasis pattern. Its mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of TNF-α.
