Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to evaluate the impact of Xiaoliu Baofei Pill (XBP) combined with chemotherapy on the quality of life (QOL) of patients with stage III-IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
- A total of 40 NSCLC patients were randomly divided into two groups: one received XBP plus chemotherapy, while the other received chemotherapy alone, with QOL assessed using the FACT-L tool.
- Results showed that the treated group maintained more stable physical health and improved mood and function over time, while the control group's QOL declined, indicating that XBP combined with chemotherapy effectively enhances the overall quality of life in these patients.
