Methods
2
A total of 70 breast cancer patients with depression were randomly assigned to the control group and treatment group
with 35 cases in each group. After the drops-out and withdrawals excluded

Tiaogan Yangxue Jiawei
Formula and acupressure ear beads. Efficacy was assessed by using the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD)
Pittsburgh Sleep Scale (PSQI)
TCM syndrome score
sex hormone levels (estradiol
follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone) and safety indexes.
Results
2
The HAMD score in the treatment group was lower after treatment than before treatment (
P
<
0.05)
but there was no significant before-after difference in the control group (
P
>
0.05). Before treatment
there was no significant difference in HAMD score between the control group and treatment group (
P
>
0.05). After treatment
the HAMD score was significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group. The before-after treatment difference between the two groups was statistically significant (
P
<
0.05)
greater in the treatment group than in the control group.The PSQI score in the treatment group was lower than that before treatment (
P
<
0.05)
but there was no significant before-after difference in the control group (
P
>
0.05). There was no significant difference between the control group and that before treatment (
P
>
0.05). After treatment
the PSQI score was significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group. There was a significant difference between the two groups before and after treatment (
P
<
0.05)
greater in the treatment group than in the control group.The score of TCM syndrome in the treatment group was lower than that before treatment (
P
<
0.05)
but there was no significant before-after difference in the control group (
P
>
0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups before treatment (
P
>
0.05). After treatment
the TCM syndrome score was significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group. The difference between the two groups before and after treatment was statistically significant (
P
<
0.05)
greater in the treatment group than in the control group.There were no cured cases in the two groups. Among the 32 cases in the treatment group
12 cases were significantly effective
18 cases were effective and 2 cases were ineffective. The total effective rate was 93.75%; In the control group
3 cases were markedly effective
15 cases were effective and 13 cases were ineffective. The total effective rate was 58.06%. By rank sum test

it indicated that the curative effect was better in the treatment group than in the control group.There was no significant difference in the levels of estradiol (E

)
follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) between the two groups after treatment and before treatment (
P
>
0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups before and after treatment (
