To investigate the clinical value of the prostate small extracorporeal protein (PSEP) level in the urine in evaluating the therapeutic effect on chronic prostatitis (CP).Totally 188 CP patients were treated with minocycline and Ningmitai Capsules in our hospital and regularly returned for follow-up examination from November 2017 to November 2018. Based on the results of treatment after 4 and 8 weeks of medication, we divided the patients into a cured, an effective and an ineffective group and compared the contents of PSEP in the urine samples of the three groups of patients before and after treatment.Compared with the baseline, the PSEP content in the urine after 4 weeks of medication was decreased in the cured group (n = 20) ([3.63 ± 3.81] vs [1.16 ± 0.41] ng/ml, P0.05), effective group (n = 85) ([4.13 ± 4.05] vs [2.97 ± 2.89] ng/ml, P0.05) and ineffective group (n = 83) ([4.72 ± 2.98] vs [3.74 ± 1.31] ng/ml, P0.05), and so was that after 8 weeks of treatment in the cured group (n = 48) ([3.72 ± 3.51] vs [0.89 ± 0.37] ng/ml, P0.05), effective group (n = 106) ([4.37 ± 3.93] vs [1.83 ± 0.71] ng/ml, P0.05) and ineffective group (n = 34) ([4.61 ± 3.59] vs [3.58 ± 1.15] ng/ml, P0.05).The PSEP level in the urine can be used as an index for clinical evaluation of the therapeutic effect on chronic prostatitis. |
