[0002] Diabetes is a common chronic disease. One of the common complications of diabetic patients is diabetic foot. About 15% of diabetic patients will develop foot ulcers in their lifetime. Diabetic foot not only seriously affects the patient's quality of life, but may also lead to amputation and even endanger life. The cumulative recurrence rate of diabetic foot in the first year after healing is 18.4% (35 / 190), the cumulative recurrence rate in the second year is 33.2% (63 / 190), and the cumulative recurrence rate in the third year is 45.3% (86 / 190). 70% of diabetic foot patients die within 5 years after amputation surgery. 5% of diabetic patients die within 12 months after visiting the doctor for the first ulcer, and 42.2% of patients die within 5 years.
[0003] The International Diabetic Foot Working Group defines diabetic foot as lower limb infection, ulceration and / or deep tissue damage caused by diabetic patients due to combined neuropathy and various degrees of lower limb vascular disease. Diabetic foot is roughly divided into three types: neuropathic, ischemic and mixed.
[0004] Diabetic foot belongs to the category of "gangrene" and "diabetes gangrene" in traditional Chinese medicine. If it occurs on top of diabetes, the person's foot ends are numb, painful, cold or dry and black, or the tendons and bones are ulcerated, which is called gangrene.

[0075] (V) Efficacy observation:
[0076] 1. Clinical observation indicators: observe the changes of diabetic foot in patients before and after treatment, including comparison of symptom quantitative scores before and after treatment and comparison of clinical effectiveness after treatment. Clinical effectiveness = (cured + markedly effective) / total number of cases in each group × 100%.
[0077] 2. Laboratory test indicators: IL-6, PCT, CRP and TNF-α tests were performed once before and after treatment as required, and detailed records were made. Anterior venous blood was drawn, serum was separated, and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent double antibody sandwich method (ELISA) was used to determine the levels of IL-6, PCT, CRP and TNF-α in serum.
[0078] 3. Efficacy judgment standard: refer to the "Chinese Expert Consensus on the Prevention and Treatment of Diabetic Foot with Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine (1st Edition)", and use the nimodipine method, that is, the ratio of the difference in symptom scores before and after treatment to the score before treatment is used as the efficacy judgment value.
[0079] Recovery: clinical symptoms and signs disappear or almost disappear, and the syndrome score reduction rate is ≥ 90%;
[0080] Markedly effective: clinical symptoms and signs are significantly improved, 70% ≤ syndrome score reduction rate < 90%;
[0081] Effective: clinical symptoms and signs are improved, 30% ≤ syndrome score reduction rate < 70%;
[0082] Ineffective: There is no significant improvement in clinical symptoms and signs, or they may even worsen, and the reduction rate of symptom scores is less than 30%.
[0083] (VI) Experimental results
[0084] 1. Clinical observation
[0085] (1) The comparison results of symptom quantitative scores before and after treatment are shown in Table 2:
[0086] Table 2
[0087]
[0088]
[0089] (Comparison between the two groups before treatment: p<0.05△Comparison between the two groups after treatment: p<0.05●Comparison before and after treatment within the group: p<0.05■)
[0090] There was no significant difference in clinical symptoms and signs between the two groups of patients before treatment, including skin temperature, skin color, humidity, edema, pus volume, pus color, pus quality, and pus odor (P>0.05), and the differences were comparable.
[0091] After treatment, the scores of all symptoms and signs in the Chinese medicine external application group were lower than those before treatment, and the difference was significant and statistically significant (P < 0.05). The scores of all symptoms and signs in the control group were lower than those before treatment, and the difference was significant and statistically significant (P < 0.05). After treatment, the skin temperature, skin color, humidity, edema, pus volume, pus color, pus quality, and pus taste scores in the Chinese medicine external application group were lower than those in the Western medicine control group, and the difference was significant and statistically significant (P < 0.05); indicating that Chinese medicine external application treatment is effective and the effect is better than that of the Western medicine control group.
[0092] (2) The comparison results of clinical efficacy after treatment are shown in Table 3:
[0093] Table 3
[0094]
[0095] The results of the efficacy of the two groups are as follows: 8 cases were cured, 15 cases were markedly effective, 7 cases were effective, and 0 cases were ineffective in the Chinese medicine external application group; 3 cases were cured, 13 cases were markedly effective, 14 cases were effective, and 0 cases were ineffective in the Western medicine control group. After treatment, the total effective rate of the Chinese medicine external application group was 76.7%, and that of the Western medicine control group was 53.3%. After non-parametric test, Z = -2.274, P = 0.023 < 0.05, there was a significant difference in efficacy between the two groups (P < 0.05), which was statistically significant. The efficacy of the Chinese medicine external application group was better.
[0096] (3) Comparison of inflammatory factors before and after treatment: IL-6, PCT, CRP and TNF-α are shown in Table 4:
[0097] Table 4
[0098]
[0099] Note: Inter-group comparison after treatment: △P<0.05; Intra-group comparison before and after treatment: *P<0.05.
[0100] Before treatment, there was no significant difference in the baseline levels of interleukin IL-6, PCT, CRP, and TNF-α between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of IL-6, PCT, CRP, and TNF-α in the two groups were lower than before treatment, and the difference was significant and statistically significant (P<0.05). This shows that both treatments have produced certain clinical effects. After treatment, the levels of IL-6, PCT, CRP, and TNF-α in the Chinese medicine external application group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was significant and statistically significant (P<0.05). This shows that the Chinese medicine external application group has a better clinical effect in reducing inflammatory factors.
[0101] (4) Safety indicators before and after treatment: blood routine, liver and kidney function comparison results are shown in Table 5:
[0102] Table 5
[0103]
[0104] Comparison between the two groups before treatment: p<0.05△Comparison between the two groups after treatment: p<0.05●Comparison before and after treatment within the group: p<0.05■
[0105] Before treatment, there was no significant difference in WBC, RBC, ALT, AST, Cre, and Urea data between the two groups (P>0.05), which showed that the drugs were comparable. After treatment, there was no significant difference in WBC, RBC, ALT, AST, Cre, and Urea between the two groups compared with those before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, there was no significant difference in WBC, RBC, ALT, AST, Cre, and Urea between the two groups compared with those before treatment (P>0.05). In summary, the drug is safe.
[0106] 2. Experiment on the healing effect of skin wound in diabetic mice
[0107] 2.1 Experimental drugs: Traditional Chinese medicine composition paste was used.
[0108] 2.2 Experimental process: Male 6-week-old C57BL / 6 mice were selected and adaptively raised for one week. After 4 weeks of feeding with diabetic feed, they were injected with 100 mg / kg streptozotocin (STZ) twice. Fasting blood glucose was measured three days later. If the blood glucose was greater than 16.7 mmol / L, the diabetic model was successfully established and included in the subsequent experiments. On the second day, the hair on the back of the mice was removed and the skin was prepared. On the third day, the back of the mice was disinfected and a circular open wound with a diameter of 6 mm × 6 mm was cut with ophthalmic scissors to construct a diabetic mouse skin wound model. They were randomly divided into a diabetic wound model group (Model) and a Chinese medicine intervention group (JJS), with 8 mice in each group; 8 male C57BL / 6 mice (normal mice of the same genetic strain) were selected as the blank control group (Con). The blank control group (Con) and the diabetic wound model group (Model) were given normal saline, and the Chinese medicine intervention group (JJS) was given a Chinese medicine composition paste for external treatment for one week. The changes in the physiological condition of the mice and the wounds were observed every day, and the wound area on days 0 and 7 was measured by ImageJ software. The wound healing rate was calculated using the formula: Wound healing rate (%) = (A 0 -A t ) / A 0 × 100%, where A 0 is the initial wound area, A t The wound area was measured; the wound sections of the mouse skin were stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) to observe the effect of the Chinese medicine paste on the wound healing and pathological lesions after intervention; the test results are as follows Figure 1 to Figure 2 shown.
[0109] Figure 1 The figure is a schematic diagram of the wound healing results. Compared with the blank control group mice, the wound healing of the diabetic wound model group mice was significantly delayed (P < 0.01); after external application of the Chinese medicine composition paste, the wound healing speed of the mice was significantly improved (P < 0.05).
[0110] HE staining was used to observe the overall healing of the skin wounds and the degree of inflammatory cell infiltration in each group of mice after 7 days of treatment. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The following is a schematic diagram of the HE staining results of the skin wounds of mice in each group. The skin tissue structure of the mice in the blank control group (Con) was relatively intact, with less inflammatory cell infiltration; the viscous secretions at the wound site of the mice in the diabetic wound model group (Model) increased, with a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrating, and the epidermis was significantly thickened. After the treatment with the Chinese medicine paste, the boundary between the epidermis and the dermis became clear, the epidermis became thinner, and the degree of inflammation and edema at the wound site was significantly reduced.
[0111] 3. Anti-inflammatory effect test on RAW264.7 macrophages
[0112] 3.1 Experimental drugs: Aqueous extracts of traditional Chinese medicine compositions were used.
