7. Study Summary
Lay Summary | Functional dyspepsia is a chronic condition in which dyspepsia such as postprandial fullness, early satiety, epigastric pain or heartburn without organic abnormalities has been identified. So far, a clear pathologic mechanism has not been identified. Worldwide, the morbidity rate of functional dyspepsia is reported to be 5-11%, and although it is not a direct life-threatening disease, more than 50% of them are reported to be disturbing their daily lives, which is very important socioeconomic disease. In conventional medicine, various therapeutic agents are administered individually or in combination with the aim of relieving symptoms, but it is rare that a clear effect is shown. Therefore, the demand for complementary and alternative therapies such as herbal medicines is increasing around the world. According to a survey conducted on 349 clinical Korean medicine doctors in June-July 2017, Yukgunja-tang was widely used for the treatment of functional dyspepsia, following (Hyangsa)Pyeongwisan (30%) and Banhasasim-tang (27%). In particular, (Hyangsa)Pyeongwisan and Banhasasimtang are herbal medicines of insurance coverage, and therefore, Yukgunja-tang is the most widely used herbal medicine of non-insurance coverage. In addition, clinical studies of Yukgunja-tang on functional dyspepsia have been actively conducted in Japan and China, but in Korea, in addition to studies to verify the clinical effects of Yukgunja-tang according to specific shape types in patients with functional dyspepsia, no large-scale clinical trials reflecting the clinical field have been conducted. According to a recent systematic review of the literature on functional dyspepsia of Yukgunja-tang, Yukgunja-tang as a complementary and alternative medicine can be considered as an effective and safe treatment for functional dyspepsia, but the evidence is uncertain due to the low quality of the included studies. Therefore, a high-quality randomized controlled clinical trial is needed to verify the effectiveness of Yukgunja-tang on functional dyspepsia. |
