Abstract:Objective To observe the effect of Yangzhengxiaoji capsule on quality of life in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE).Methods 60 patients with primary liver cancer were random-ly divided into control group and the treatment group with 30 patients in each group , control group only accept TACE .In treat-ment group, patients received TACE +Yangzhengxiaoji capsule;treatment lasted 28 d.Preoperative and postoperative QOL using the core scale ( QLQ-C30) assesses five functional areas , three main symptoms areas and six individual entries .Rseults Two cases were removed in treatment group and control group excluded three cases ,treatment groups'clinic benefit ( CB) rate was 89.3%(25/28), the control group's CB rate was 92.6%(25/27), the difference was not statistically significant ( P >0.05).2 groups of patients function scores showed no significant difference ( P >0.05).In the treatment group, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, pain, sleep disorders, loss of appetite, diarrhea score significantly improved compared with before treat-ment ( P <0.05, P <0.01).In control group, only fatigue, loss of appetite were improvement than before treatment ( P <0.05).Control group's fatigue, nausea, vomiting,pain,sleep disorders, loss of appetite, diarrhea scores were decreased 7.83%,4.01 %2,.78%,7.41%,7.41%,2.74%,the treatment group decreased by 11.91%,5.07%, 13.99%,15.47%, 15.47%,9.53%,improvement in the treatment group was more significantly than the control group ( P <0.05).TACE post-operative bone marrow suppression , WBC lower than the control group treated group ( P <0.05), ALT, AST 2 group differ-ence was also statistically significant ( P <0.05).Conclusion Yangzhengxiaoji capsule can significantly improve quality of life in hepatocellular carcinoma after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization .
