Abstract:Objective:To observe the clinical effect of the therapy of Longdan Xiegan tang combined with Taohong Siwu tang on type ⅢA prostatitis with damp-heat stasis and stagnation syndrome. Methods: A total of 160 patients with type ⅢA prostatitis were divided into the control group and the observation group according to the random number table method,with 80 cases in each group. The control group was treated with levofloxacin lactate tablets,and the observation group was additionally treated with Longdan Xiegan tang combined with Taohong Siwu tang based on the treatment of the control group. After six weeks of treatment,the scores of National Institutes of Health Chronic Prostatitis Symptom Index(NIH-CPSI) and damp-heat stasis and stagnation syndrome,clinical effects and white blood cell count in prostatic fluid were compared between the two groups. Results:The total effective rate was 96.25% in the observation group,significantly higher than that of 82.08% in the control group,the difference being significant(P< 0.05). Before treatment,there was no significant difference being found in the comparisons of NIH-CPSI scores and symptom scores of damp-heat stasis and stagnation syndrome between the two groups(P> 0.05). After treatment,the NIH-CPSI scores and symptom scores of damp-heat stasis and stagnation syndrome in the two groups were significantly decreased when compared with those before treatment(P< 0.05);the above scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P< 0.05). Before treatment,there was no significant difference being found in the comparison of white blood cell count in prostatic fluid between the two groups(P>0.05). After treatment,the white blood cell count in prostatic fluid in the two groups was significantly decreased when compared with that before treatment(P< 0.05);the white blood cell count in prostatic fluid in the observation group was less than that in the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:The therapy of Longdan Xiegan tang combined with Taohong Siwu tang has a definite curative effect on ⅢA prostatitis with damp- heat stasis and stagnation syndrome, which can effectively reduce the inflammatory responses of the body and improve the clinical symptoms and Chinese medicine syndromes.
