title: [Study of prevention and treatment on acute radioactive injury with huoxue yiqi yangyin recipe].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To reduce the acute toxic and side-effect of radiotherapy with Huoxue Yiqi Yangyin recipe (HYYR).
  
  
  METHODS
  Seventy-two nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients that using radiotherapy were divided into two groups: HYYR group (A) and the control group (B) using Wisk lotion for gargling or apply at the skin lesion.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The injury on mucous membrane of mouth cavity and skin were 47.2%, 91.7%, 13.9%, 33.3% in group A and B respectively, the degree of injury was different (P < 0.01). The acute reaction of the mucous membrane of mouth cavity did not occur until the cumulative radiation were 41.4 +/- 9.4, 30.9 +/- 8.9 in group A and B respectively, there was significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.01).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  HYYR can reduce the acute radioactive reaction of the skin and mucous membrane of mouth cavity and inhibition of bone marrow.
