Abstract:Objective To explore the effect of Buzhong Yiqi Decoction on bone marrow suppression and quality of life in elderly patients with advanced digestive system malignant tumors. Methods Eighty-three elderly patients with advanced digestive system malignant tumor admitted to Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2019 to April 2022 were selected and divided into control group (41 cases, XELOX chemotherapy) and observation group (42 cases, XELOX chemotherapy + Buzhong Yiqi Decoction) by random number table method. The clinical efficacy of four weeks after chemotherapy and the myelosuppression of one week after chemotherapy were analyzed and compared between the two groups. The quality of life and immune level before and one week after chemotherapy were analyzed and compared between the two groups. The occurrence of adverse reactions during chemotherapy was recorded. Results At four weeks after chemotherapy, the curative effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). One week after chemotherapy, the incidence of grade Ⅱ and above myelosuppression rate in observation group was lower than that in control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). One week after chemotherapy, the Kanofsky performance status (KPS) score of control group was lower than that of control group before treatment, the KPS score of observation group was higher than that of observation group before treatment, and the levels of immunoglobulin (Ig) M, IgG, and IgA in both groups were higher than those before treatment, KPS score, IgM, IgG, and IgA in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and alopecia between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Buzhong Yiqi Decoction can improve the clinical efficacy of elderly patients with advanced digestive system malignant tumors, reduce the degree of bone marrow suppression, greatly improve the quality of life and immune capacity of patients, and can be widely used in clinical treatment.
