Xiaozheng Granules combined with Jingqiankang Bacteriostatic Gelatin for chronic prostatitis with damp-heat and blood stasis:A clinical observation based on infrared thermography
Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Xiaozheng Granules(XZG)combined with Jingqiankang Bacterio-static Gelatin(JBG)on chronic prostatitis of the damp-heat and blood-stasis type based on infrared thermography(IRT).Methods:This study included 120 cases of chronic prostatitis with damp-heat and blood stasis treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan U-niversity of Chinese Medicine with oral XZG(the control group,n=60)or oral XZG combined with anal administration of JBG(the trial group,n=60),both for 4 weeks.We obtained the NIH-CPSI and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores of the patients,measured the temperatures in the belt-vessel,lower focal and inguinal regions by IRT before and after treatment,recorded the adverse reactions during the treatment,and compared them between the two groups of patients.Results:Compared with the base-line,the NIH-CPSI and TCM syndrome scores were significantly decreased in the two groups of patients after treatment(P<0.05),even more significantly in the trial than in the control group(P<0.05),and after 1 hour of treatment,the temperatures in the Xia-jiao([34.09±0.34]vs[33.60±0.40]℃,P<0.05)and the groin region([34.49±0.28]vs[33.78±0.30]℃,P<0.05)were remarkably reduced in the trial group,but showed no significant change in the control group(Xiajiao region:[34.02±0.29]vs[34.05±0.26]℃,P>0.05;groin region:[34.54±0.25]vs[34.51±0.22]℃,P>0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the temperatures in the Xiajiao and groin regions were even lower in the trial([33.13±0.41]℃ and[33.21±0.29]℃ )and the control group([33.42±0.25]℃ and[33.86±0.29]℃ )than the baseline and those after 1 hour of treatment(P<0.05),and still more significantly in the former than in the latter group(P<0.05).The total effectiveness rate was markedly higher in the trial group than in the control(88.14％ vs 77.19％,P<0.05),and no obvious adverse reactions were observed in neither group.Conclusion:XZG combined with JBG is a safe and effective treatment of chronic prostatitis with damp-heat and blood-stasis,which can significantly reduce the NIH-CPSI and TCM syndrome scores and IRT temperatures in the lower focal and in-guinal regions of the patients.
