Title: Clinical observation of the liver cirrhosis with abnormal alpha fetoprotein treated by Zhengganfang
Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical effect of Zhengganfang(ZGF) on the hepatitis cirrhosis with abnormal Alpha-fetoprotein(AFP).MethodsEighty six patients of hepatitis cirrhosis with abnormal AFP were divided at random into therapeutic group and control group. Both of the groups got normal complex therapies. On the base of normal complex therapies, the therapeutic group was treated with ZGF, every day a decoction, for 6 months. Before and after treatment the change of liver function, the level of AFP, laminin(LN), hyaluronic acid(HA) and type Ⅳ collagen(Ⅳ-C) were detected. Results ZGF could improve liver function and the serum index of hepatic fibrosis. The AFP level in the liver cirrhosis with abnormal AFP wad reduced(P0.01).The curative effect of ZGF was better than control group . Conclusion ZGF can effectively decrease the level of abnormal AFP. It also has the function of anti-hepatic injury and anti-hepatic fibrosis.
