Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between the mental symptoms and the functional dyspepsia (FD), and the effect of Xiaoyu decoction (XYD) plus psychotherapy on FD. METHODS: SCL-90 scale and FD symptom scale were used to estimate the condition of 56 healthy subjects and 56 patients of FD before and after 4 weeks treatment with XYD plus psychotherapy. RESULTS: There was significant difference in SCL-90 scales between the healthy subjects and the FD patients before treatment (P < 0.01). After treatment, the mental symptoms and the symptom of FD in the patients were markedly improved, as compared with those before treatment, the difference was significant (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Mental symptoms, such as depression and anxiety exists widely in patients of FD, are closely related to FD. XYD plus psychotherapy could treat it effectively.
