    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect and safety of the magnetic resonance electromagnetic therapy (MREM) combined with Qianlie Beixi Capsules (QBC) in the treatment of chronic prostatitis / chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS). METHODS: Using a prospective, two-center, randomized, open, positive drug-loading, parallel-controlled clinical design, we randomly divided 124 patients with CP/CPPS into a control and an observation group of equal number, the former treated with QBC and the latter with QBC combined with MREM for a course of 14 days. Then, we compared the NIH-CPSI scores before and after treatment, the total effectiveness rate and safety between the two groups of patients. RESULTS: After treatment, the patients in both the observation and control groups showed significantly improved total and specific item scores on NIH-CPSI (P < 0.05), and those of the observation group achieved even more significant improvement than the controls either in the total NIH-CPSI score (16.65 ± 7.90 vs 21.95 ± 5.70, P < 0.05) or in the pain symptom score (7.34 ± 3.26 vs 9.50 ± 2.47, P < 0.05), urination symptom score (3.53 ± 2.56 vs 4.50 ± 2.35, P < 0.05) and quality of life score (5.94 ± 2.89 vs 8.03 ± 2.60, P < 0.05). The total effectiveness rate was remarkably higher in the observation than in the control group (83.87% vs 53.23%, P < 0.05). No adverse events or reactions were observed in either group of the patients during the trial. CONCLUSIONS: Magnetic resonance electromagnetic therapy combined with Qianlie Beixi Capsules can significantly relieve the clinical symptoms of CP/CPPS patients with high effectiveness and safety.
