Methods: During the period from 2000 to 2005, 126 patients with local advanced breast cancer were treated with the neoadjuvant chemotherapy. They were randomly divided into the following two groups: a control group of 61 cases treated by chemotherapy alone and a study group of 65 cases treated by chemotherapy plus Shenqi Fuzheng Injection, All the cases of both groups were given the CEF (CTX 500 mg/m^2, d1, 8; EP140 mg/m^2, d1, 8; and 5-Fu 500 mg/m^2, d1,8) regimen. The clinical effects, the effects on T-lymphocyte subgroup and NK cells, and the toxic side effects were observed. Results: All the patients completed two cycles of the chemotherapy, and the efficacy and the toxic side effects were evaluated. For the primary tumor in the breast, the total effective rate was 69.2% (45/65) in the study group and 49.2% (30/61) in the control group with a statistically significant difference in the intergroup comparison (x^2=5.251, P=0.022, 〈 0.05). There was no progression of the disease in both the groups, and there were no grade IV toxic side effects in the two groups. The major toxic responses were myelosuppression and gastrointestinal reaction, which were milder in the study group than the control group, and with a shorter recovery course in the former than the latter. Besides, an obvious rise of the T-lymphocyte subgroup and NK cells was found in the study group after the neoadjuvant chemotherapy, with a very significant difference from the controls (P〈0.01). Conclusions: Shenqi Fuzheng Injection can improve and regulate immune function of the patients with local advanced breast cancer given the neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and therefore it can enhance the curative effect and reduce the side effect as well.展开更多

Methods: The 36 cases of ovarian epithelial cancer in The Third Affiliated Hospital of SUN Yat-sen University(Guangzhou, China) from June 2010 to June 2013, were randomly divided into the study group and the control group. The study group contained 18 cases using Shenqi Fuzheng injection combined with TP(Taxol + Carboplatin/cisplatin) chemotherapy, and the control group contained 18 cases only using TP chemotherapy without Shenqi Fuzheng injection. During and after chemotherapy, the side-effects and therapy effects were observed. Results: The grade II of nausea and vomit were less in the study group than that in the control group, which was significantly different(P < 0.05). But there were no significantly differences in grade I of nausea and vomit between the two groups(P > 0.05). There was less degree of decrease of lymphocyte in the study group than that in the control group, which was significantly different(P < 0.05). But between two groups, there were no significant differences in the drop of white blood cells and red blood cells, the incidence of allergic reaction, liver and renal functions, nerve lesion and phalacrosis(P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in chemotherapy effect between the two groups(P > 0.05). Conclusion: Shenqi Fuzheng injection can in some degree relieve the side effects of TP chemotherapy for the patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, including relieving nausea and vomiting, protecting lymphocytes, and has no conflict effect on chemotherapy efficacy.展开更多

Methods: A total of 82 patients with AECOPD and type Ⅱ respiratory failure were divided into control group (n=40) and observation group (n=42) according to random data table, patients in the control group received naloxone and BiPAP ventilator therapy, and observation group patients were treated with Shenqi Fuzheng Injection on the basis of control group. The levels of serum inflammatory factors, immune function and blood gas analysis indexes were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results: There were no significant difference in levels of CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+, PaO2, PaCO2, SaO2 and pH before and after treatment in the two groups. After treatment, the levels of CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, CD8+and PaCO2 in two groups were significantly lower than those in same group before treatment, moreover observation group was significantly lower than control group;and levels of CRP, TNF-α, IL-6, CD8+ and PaCO2 in the observation group was significantly lower than those of the control group, the difference was statistically significant;When compared with the group before treatment, CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, PaO2, SaO2 and pH levels of both groups after treatment were significantly increased, and the level of each index of observation group after treatment were significantly higher than the control group, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion: The clinical effect of Shenqi Fuzheng Injection Combined with naloxone and BiPAP ventilator in treatment of AECOPD with type II respiratory failure is significant, can effectively reduce the body's inflammatory reaction, improve immune function, regulate blood gas analysis index, with a certain clinical value.展开更多
