Clinical study on application of Huoxue Huayu Decoction combined with methotrexate in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis
Objective,2,To observe the clinical effect of application of Huoxue Huayu decoction combined with methotrexate in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.,Methods,2,80 patients with rheumatoid arthritis were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 40 patients in each group. Both groups were treated with methotrexate. The treatment group was added with Huoxue Huayu Decoction, while the control group was added with Huoxue Huayu Simulated Decoction. The course of treatment in both groups was 6 months. After treatment, the TCM syndrome curative effect, TCM syndromes score, disease activity(DAS28) score, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), rheumatoid factor (RF), anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP)antibody, fibrinogen (Fg), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and proliferation of synovial pannus were observed.,Results,2,①Finally, 73 patients completed the clinical trial, 37 patients in the treatment group and 36 patients in the control group. ② After treatment, the total effective rate of the treatment group was 89.19%, and that of the control group was 77.78%. Comparing the curative effect of TCM syndromes between the two groups, the treatment group was better than the control group (,P,<,0.05). ③After treatment., the scores of DAS28 and TCM syndromes of the two groups decreased (,P,<,0.05). After treatment, there was no significant difference in DAS28 score between the two groups (,P,>,0.05), and the TCM syndrome score of the treatment group was significantly lower than that of the control group (,P,<,0.05). ④After treatment, the levels of RF, ESR, CRP and anti-CCP in both groups were lower than those before treatment (,P,<,0.05). After treatment, the levels of RF and CRP in treatment group were lower than those in control group (,P,<,0.05). ⑤After treatment, the levels of Fg and VEGF in the treatment group were lower than those before treatment (,P,<,0.05), and were lower than those in the control group (,P,<,0.05). ⑥Comparison between before and after treatment, the synovial pannus grades of both groups were better than those before treatment (,P,<, 0.05); After treatment, the grade of synovial pannus in the treatment group was better than that in the control group (,P,<,0.05).,Conclusion,2,The application of Huoxue Huayu decoction combined with methotrexate in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis has a good clinical effect, it can effectively down regulate the levels of CRP, Fg and VEGF, and inhibit the proliferation of synovial pannus.
