Efficacy of Tanzhuo Decoction in the treatment of early diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and its effect on cystatin C,C-reactive protein,urinary albumin excretion rate,and creatinine clearance rate
Objective To investigate the efficacy of Tanzhuo Decoction in the treatment of early diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and its effect on cystatin C(Cys-C),C-reactive protein(CRP),urinary albumin excretion rate(UAER),and creatinine clearance rate(CCr).Methods Eighty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated by early diabetic nephropathy who received treatment at Maanshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from 2019 to 2021 were included in this randomized controlled study.They were divided into a control group(n=40)and a treatment group(n=40)using the random number table method.Patients in the control group received conventional therapy including blood glucose and blood pressure control,while those in the treatment group received Tangzhuo Decoction in addition to the same treatment as that given to the control group.Both groups of patients were treated for 30 days.The clinical efficacy as well as pre-and post-treatment Cys-C,CRP,UAER,and CCr were compared between the two groups.Results The total response rate in the treatment group was 92.5％(37/40),which was significantly higher than 75.0％(30/40)in the control group(x2=4.50,P＜0.05).After treatment,Cys-C,CRP,and UAER in the treatment group were(2.04±0.08)mg/L,(3.97±1.71)mg/L,and(91.18±18.68)μg/min,respectively,which were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(t=12.14,5.59,4.73,all P＜0.05).After treatment,CCr in the treatment group was(56.3±5.01)mL/min,which was significantly increased compared with that before treatment(t=-8.56,P＜0.05).After treatment,Cys-C,CRP,and UAER in the control group were(2.17±0.04)mg/L,(4.66±1.47)mg/L,and(103.93±22.62)μg/min,respectively,which were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment(t=4.05,5.00,2.24,all P＜0.05).After treatment,CCr in the control group was(45.9±4.9)mL/min,which was significantly increased compared with that before treatment(t=-3.98,P＜0.05).There were significant differences in Cys-C,UAER,and CCr between the treatment and control groups(t=-7.42,-2.29,7.82,all P＜0.05).Conclusion Tanzhuo Decoction for the treatment of early diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus has a definite effect.It can effectively reduce levels of Cys-C and UAER,reduce inflammatory reactions,improve kidney function,and delay the progression of kidney injury.
