Abstract

Objective: To explore the clinical effect of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the treatment of liver-stomach disharmony functional dyspepsia. Methods: Sixty patients with functional dyspepsia of liver-stomach disharmony type admitted to our hospital from January to August 2022 were selected as research subjects and randomly divided into two groups, a study group and a control group, with 30 cases in each group. The main observations were stomachache or pain over bilateral flanks, emotionally depressed, belching, fullness and discomfort over the abdomen and flanks, acid regurgitation, loss of appetite, frequent sighing, noisy epigastric, and the treatment effect. Results: According to the classification of symptom severity on the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom score table, statistics were made on the corresponding severity of the main symptoms and secondary symptoms of the two groups of patients, and the data of the two groups were compared by Wilcoxon test. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the distribution of TCM symptoms between the two groups; the study group’s total effective rate of pain relief (recovery + markedly effective + effective) was 96.67%, and Fisher’s ?2 test indicated a significant difference in the total effective rate of pain relief between the two groups (P = 0.027 < 0.05). Conclusion: The use of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine is clearly better than the simple application of western medicine. It is safe and has no side effects. It can be used as a treatment for patients with functional dyspepsia.
