Title: Clinical study of qingluo tongbi granules in treating 63 patients with rheumatoid arthritis of the type of yin-deficiency and heat in collaterals. Author: Zhou X, Zhou Z, Jin M, Wang H, Wu M, Song Y, Cheng H. Journal: J Tradit Chin Med; 2004 Jun; 24(2):83-7. PubMed ID: 15270253. Abstract: The study is to observe the therapeutic effects of qingluo tongbi granules (QTG) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and the changes of immune indexes. In this series there are 63 patients with RA of the type of yin-deficiency and heat in collaterals treated with QTG as the treated group and 55 patients of the same type treated with Tripterygium glycosides as the control group. As a result, in the treated group, the curative rate is 9.52% and markedly effective rate 38.10%, with a total effective rate of 90.48%, while the corresponding rates in the control group are 0, 20.00% and 83.64%, respectively. The curative effect in the treated group is better than that in the control group (P<0.05). Besides, no obvious adverse reactions are found in the treated group. Therefore it is concluded that as a new medicinal preparation QTG is safe and effective in the treatment of RA.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
