About this study
Official title: Randomized Controlled Study on Roujin Formula in the Treatment of Fibromyalgia Syndrome With Blood Deficiency and Liver Depression
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Roujin Formula in the treatment of fibromyalgia syndrome(FMS)patients with blood deficiency and liver depression through a randomized,single-blind,placebo-parallel controlled exploratory clinical trial study,and to provide reliable clinical evidence for the treatment of fibromyalgia syndrome with Roujin Formula. 48 eligible participants with FMS of blood deficiency and liver depression syndrome were selected and randomly divided into treatment group(n=24)and control group(n=24). The treatment group was given Roujin Foumula 150mL,twice a day; The control group was given Roujin Foumula placebo 150mL,twice a day,the study period was 8 weeks. The evaluation points were 0 weeks,4 weeks,and 8 weeks of treatment,and follow-up to 12 weeks. To evaluate the effect changes before and after treatment,FIQR score、VAS score、PSQI score、BDI score and SF-36 PCS、MCS score were used as secondary efficacy evaluation indexes. SPSS23.0 was used to analyze the data.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The change of the revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQR) from baseline
A self-administered questionnaire with 10 subscales, measuring fibromyalgia symptoms and function domains. FIQR total score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.
Measured: baseline,4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks
The change of the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain from baseline
Pain VAS, range, 0 to 10 cm, where higher scores indicated the perceived pain to be more severe.
Measured: baseline,4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks
Secondary outcomes (3)
The change of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) from baseline
Scores on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) range from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating worse sleep quality.
Measured: baseline,4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks
The change of the Beck depression inventory(BDI) from baseline
The Beck II Depression Inventory (BDI) assesses the severity of depressive symptoms. Scores range from 0 to 39, with higher scores indicate a greater degree of depression severity.
Measured: baseline,4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks
The change of the Short Form-36 Health Status Questionnaire(SF-36) from baseline
The Short Form-36 Health Status Questionnaire (SF-36), which measured health-related quality of life (range, 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better perceived health status).The Short Form-36 Health Status Questionnaire (SF-36), which measured health-related quality of life (range, 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better perceived health status).
