[Clinical effect of prunrllae oral solution in treating hyperthyrea].
OBJECTIVE
To observe the clinical effects of prunrllae oral solution in treating hyperthyrea.


METHODS
56 cases with hyperthyrea were randomized into two groups; group A1 was treated by classic method, B1 was treated by classic method combined with prunrllae oral solution. The size, vessel caliber of thyroidea, volume of blood flow and blood flow rate pre-and post-treatment were measured by color supersonic, meanwhile, 20 normal thyroidea were measured as control group.


RESULTS
The size and vessel caliber of thyroidea of the two groups pre-treatment were obviously bigger than those of the control group, the volume of blood flow and blood flow rate were obviously slower than those of the control group (P < 0.001), the sizes of thyroidea of the two groups became smaller, especially the group B1 was more obvious, and there was no significant difference in the size of thyroidea between group B1 and control group.


CONCLUSIONS
It is indicated that combined treatment of traditional Chinese medicine (prunrllae oral solution) and western medicine is superior to western medicine in treating hyperthyrea.
