Effect of new Pulian Ointment (新普连膏) in treating psoriasis of blood-heat syndrome: A randomized controlled trial
摘要
To objectively assess the clinical efficacy and safety of a new Pulian Ointment (新普连膏
NPLO) in treating psoriasis of blood-heat syndrome of Chinese medicine. A total of 108 patients with psoriasis of blood-heat syndrome were equally assigned
using a randomizing digital table
to the test group treated externally with NPLO and the control group treated with placebo; the medication was done using a singleblinded method twice a day. Meanwhile
all patients received by oral intake a conventional Chinese decoction for clearing heat and cooling blood; the therapeutic course was 4 weeks for both groups. The therapeutic efficacy
changes in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score and various aspects of the lesion
including scaly eruption
erythema
infiltration
size
score of itching as well as adverse reactions were observed. The trial was completed in 100 patients
51 in the test group and 49 in the control group. The remarkably effective rate was 45.10% and the total effective rate was 84.31% in the test group
which were significantly higher than those in the control group
12.24% and 51.02%
respectively
showing a significant difference between groups (P<0.01). The test group also showed better effects in the improvement of the PASI score of the lesions and scores on erythema
infiltration
size of lesion as well as itching. No adverse event was found in either group. NPLO is a Chinese remedy for the external treatment of psoriasis of the blood-heat syndrome with a reliable therapeutic efficacy and good safety.
