OBJECTIVE
To observe the therapeutic effect of rhubarb and Sanchi Powder (RSP) in treating patients with hemorrhagic fever in nephrotic syndrome (NS) complicated with digestive tract bleeding.
METHODS
Sixty patients clinically diagnosed as hemorrhagic fever in NS complicated with digestive tract bleeding were randomized into 2 groups. Fine ground rhubarb (3g) and SP (2g) were given orally to the patients in the treated group 3 - 4 times daily. Dicynonum (2g) was given by intravenously dripping to the patients in the control group.
RESULTS
In the treated group, 17 patients were cured, 5 markedly effective and 6 effective, with the markedly effective rate of 70.97% and the total effective rate of 90.32%. The corresponding number in the control group was 10, 3, 6, 44.83% and 65.52%, respectively, significant difference was shown in comparison between the two groups (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). The average hemostatic time was (2.32 +/- 0.82) h, the platelet count was (8.84 +/- 1.13) x 10(9) /L, and the platelet aggregation rate was obviously improved in the treated group, which were significantly different to those in the control group [(4.15 +/- 0.69) h, (6.22 +/- 0.89) x 10(9)/L, respectively, P<0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
RSP has the action of promoting vasoconstriction, shortening the bleeding time and blood arresting, it can increase the platelet count and improve the platelet aggregation.
