    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic efficacy on chronic severe hepatitis B (CSH) patients of Yanghuang and Yinhuang syndrome type by principles of cooling-blood and detoxicating combined with clearing-heat and resolving dampness (PA) or with strengthening-Pi and warming-yang (PB), respectively. METHODS: Forty-three patients with CSH were randomly divided into two groups, group A (22 cases) treated with PA and group B (21 cases) with PB. The therapeutic efficacy, laying stress on the effect in eliminating jaundice, was observed. RESULTS: The efficacy in group B was effective in 19 cases (90.5%), and ineffective in 2 (9.5%), while in group A, effective in 16 (72.7%) and ineffective in 6 (27.3%). Levels of TBIL and ALT were significantly lower in both groups (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01), and the descending extent was greater, the thrombinogen activity was higher in group B than that in group A after treatment (P < 0.05), no significant difference in ALT was found between the two groups. CONCLUSION: The efficacy of PB is better than that of PA on CSH with Yanghuang and Yinghuang syndrome.
