Objectives : The purpose of this study is to review herbal treatment for diabetic neuropathy by summarizing Korean clinical studies.
Methods : The study was based on 8 papers published in Korea since 1997. The papers were searched on six domestic electronic databases including RISS, NDSL, Koreantk, KMBASE, Koreamed and OASIS.
Results :
1. The average age of the subjects was 50.6 years. In sexual proportion, male is 72.7% and female is 28.3%. The average duration of diabetic neuropathy was 4.5 years.
2. The most frequent Pattern identification was Eumhu(ëäúÈ).
3. In administration of Korean herbal medicine, UchaShinki-hwan(éÚó³ãìѨü¯) was the most frequently used to treat diabetic neuropathy and the next was Yukmijihwang-tang(׿ګò¢üÜ÷·), Bogan-tang(ÜÍÊÜ÷·) and Gamisamul-tang(Ê¥Ú«ÞÌÚª÷·).
4. The average period of treatment was 43 days and the most frequent used evaluation index was VAS or NRS score.
5. The effects of treatment were evaluated based on VAS, NRS score, FBS, pp2hr and other evaluation indexes. In all studies, VAS or NRS score decreased to 1-3, and FBS, pp2hr and other indicators were significantly more effective than before treatment.
Conclusion : To improve the treatment of diabetic neuropathy in Korean herbal medicine, large scale studies will be required to evaluate the authority of Korean medical treatment for diabetic neuropathy.
