Abstrakt: To explore the effect of atorvastatin combined with Zishen Qingqi granules on the immune function and liver function of patients with mild to moderate activity systemic lupus erythematosus. The data of 120 patients with mild to moderate activity systemic lupus erythematosus admitted to our hospital from February 2019 to February 2020 were retrospectively analyzed and they were divided into experimental group (n=60) and the control group (n=60) according to the order of admission; the control group was treated with atorvastatin, and the experimental group was treated with Zishen Qingqi granules plus. The immune function, liver function, TCM syndrome score and systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) were compared between the two groups. The experimental group after treatment was superior to the control group with respect to immune function indexes, liver function indexes, SLEDAI and TCM syndromes (all P<0.001). Atorvastatin combined with Zishen Qingqi granules can improve the liver function of patients with mild to moderate activity systemic lupus erythematosus, enhance their immunity, and relieve their clinical symptoms.
