Effect of Hugu capsule on bone mineral contenAndbone metabolism in postmenopausalwomen[J]. Journal of Chongqing Medical University, 1998,(4):380-382. DOI: 10.13406/j.cnki.cyxb.1998.04.001.
Eighty postmenopausal or artificial postmenopausal women treated with hugu capsule were observed for bone mineral content(BMC)
urine calcium and urine Hop/Cr.The results showed that the scort of urine Ca/Cr
urine Hop/Cr was decreased after hugu cap sule treatment(P<0.05
P<0.05)and that the value of BMC after treatment with hugu capsule was higher than that before treatment.However
there was no statistical significance(P>0.05).Similar response was found in the control group treated with Netestriol.The results suggest that hugu capsule regulates bone metabolism by inhibiting bone resorplion and reducing bone loss.IT is useful for osteoporosis.
