Observation on the Clinical Effect of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu Decoction Added Flavor Combined with Fire Dragon Jar for the Treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu decoction added flavor combined with Fire dragon jar in the treatment of type 2 diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN).Method:80 cases of type 2 DPN patients admitted to Yulin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects,and they were divided into an observation group and a control group according to the order of consultation,with 40 cases in each group.The patients in the control group were treated with Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu decoction added flavor,and the patients in the observation group were treated with fire dragon jar treatment on the basis of the control group,and both of them continued to be treated for 14 d.Clinical efficacy,TCM symptom scores,blood glucose levels[fasting blood glucose(FPG),2 h postprandial blood glucose(2 h PG),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)],and neurological function indexes[motor nerve conduction velocity(MNCV)and sensory nerve conduction velocity(SNCV)of the median nerve(MN)and the common peroneal nerve(CPN)]before and after the treatment were compared between the two groups of patients.Result:The total effective rate of clinical treatment of patients in the observation group was better than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After treatment,the TCM symptom scores,FPG,2 h PG,HbA1c levels of the two groups of patients were reduced,and the observation group was lower than the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The MNCV and SNCV of MN and CPN were significantly elevated in both groups,and the patients in the observation group were better than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion:The efficacy of Huangqi Guizhi Wuwu decoction added flavor combined with Fire dragon jar in the treatment of DPN is remarkable,which can significantly alleviate the clinical symptoms of DPN patients,enhance the effect of glucose lowering and accelerate the speed of conduction of various nerves.
