Effect observation of modified Qijing Danlan Decoction combined with intermittent food restriction therapy on patients with metabolic syndrome
Objective To explore the application effect of Qijing Danlan Decoction combined with intermittent food restriction therapy on patients with metabolic syndrome.Methods A total of 100 patients with metabolic syndrome in the outpatient department of Xiamen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from October 2022 to October 2023 were selected and divided into two groups using a random number table method.3 patients were excluded from the control group and 2 patients were excluded from the study group.47 patients in the control group were treated with routine western medicine,while 48 patients in the study group were treated with Qijing Danlan Decoction combined with intermittent food restriction therapy on the basis of the control group.Both groups were treated continuously for 12 weeks.Obesity index,glucose metabolism index,lipid metabolism index,blood pressure,vitamin D level and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed before and after treatment for 12 weeks.Results The waist circumference,body mass index(BMI),body fat and body fat rate of the two groups after treatment were lower than those before treatment,but there was no statistically significant difference(P>0.05)between the control group and the study group before and after treatment,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the waist circumference,BMI,body fat and body fat rate in the study group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The levels of fasting blood glucose,fasting insulin and insulin resistance index,fasting total cholesterol,triglyceride,systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in the two groups after treatment were lower than those before treatment,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 in the two groups after treatment were higher than that before treatment,and that level of the study group was higher than that of the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Qijing Danlan Decoction combined with intermittent food restriction therapy can improve the obesity,glucose metabolism and lipid metabolism of patients with metabolic syndrome,and can adjust their blood pressure and increase their vitamin D level without increasing adverse reactions.
