title: [Shengjing tablets for semen non-liquefaction: a clinical study of 100 cases].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the efficacy and action mechanism of Shengjing Tablets in the treatment liquefaction.
  
  
  METHODS
  We randomly assigned 150 patients with semen non-liquefaction to receive Shengjing Tablets group, n = 100) and vitamin E capsules (control group, n = 50) for 2 courses of 45 days each, followed by observation liquefaction time and other semen parameters.
  
  
  RESULTS
  After the first course, 68 of the patients in the treatment group 20 responded and 12 failed to respond; and after the second course, 84 were cured, 9 responded and 7 failed to respond, effective rate of 93.0%. In comparison, only 8 of the controls were cured, 8 responded and 34 failed to respond after medication. There were statistically significant differences between the two groups (P < 0.01). Meanwhile, the treatment showed obvious improvement in sperm motility and concentration.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Shengjing Tablets may shorten the time liquefaction, and can be used as a safe and effective therapy for semen non-liquefaction.
