Abstract:Objective To observe the clinical effect of Entecavir combined with Heluoshugan Capsules treating hepatitis B cirrhosis of compensated stage.Methods 82 patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis of compensated stage diagnosed and treated by department of gastroenterology in Central Hospital of Jiaozhou of Qingdao City from June 2011 to May 2012 were selected and they were randomly divided into treatment group of 41 cases and control group of 41 cases.Control group was treated with oral Entecavir Disket 0.5 mg,once a day,while the treatment group was treated with oral Heluoshugan Capsules for 5 capsules,three times a day,and taking Heluoshugan Capsules for 2 months and stopping 1 month and then continued to take according to the law,and both groups received 48 months treatment.Treatment effect between two groups was compared.Results Albumin(Alb)level in two groups were significantly different(t=6.351,P=0.017),the treatment group was better than the control group;the level of serum hyaluronie acid(HA),Laminin(LN),procollagen typeⅢ(PC-Ⅲ)and collagen typeⅣ-C(Ⅳ-C)were decreased significantly in treatment group than in control group, and the above-mentioned indexes were better than those in control group(P<0.01).The negative conversion rate of treatment group(41.4%)was significantly higher than that of control group(14.6%)(P<0.01).There was a statistical difference of the portal vein diameter between two groups(P<0.01),but there was no significant difference in negative conversion rate of HBV-DNA(P>0.05).Conclusion Entecavir combined with Heluoshugan Capsules treating hepatitis B cirrhosis of compensated stage can improve liver function,suppress viral replication persistently,and can delay or even reverse the progression of liver fibrosis,and it has clinical application value.
