title: [Clinical observation of qingxue granules in treating post-nephrotransplantation erythrocytosis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To observe the therapeutic efficacy of Qingxue Granules (QX) in treating postnephrotransplant erythrocytosis (PNTE).
  
  
  METHODS
  Twenty patients were randomly divided into two groups according to the randomized table. QX was given to patients in the TCM treated group (QX group) and Enalapril given to patients in the Western medicine treated group (WM group), and the clinical efficacy in the two groups was observed. Results In the QX group, 3 patients got markedly effective, 2 effective, 2 improved, 1 ineffective, 1 dropped from the treatment, 1 absconded, with the total effective rate of 77.78%. The corresponding numbers in the WM group were 4, 2, 2, 1, 1 and 66.67%. There was no significant difference in comparison of the efficacies between the two groups (P > 0.05). There was no difference between the Intent-to-Treat population and Per-protocol Pouplation after statistical management of lost cases.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  It has proved that QX has the same therapeutic effects as classic Western medical treatment in treating PNTE. The reliability and scientificity of QX was proved by Intent-to-Treat analysis.
