P>0.05);after the treatment,the negative symptom score,positive symptoms score,general psychiatric pathology symptom score and total score in the observation group was (9.4±3.2) points,(16.8±4.2) points,(10.9±3.8)points and (37.2±7.2) points,respectively,while in the control group was (12.6±4.1) points,(20.5±3.8) points,(14.3±3.6) points and (46.8±7.9) points,respectively,the score in the observation group were significantly lower than that in the control group(
P<0.05);the efficiency in observation group was 95.8%(46/48),while in the control group was 81.2%(39/48),the observation group was significantly higher as compared with the control group(
P<0.05);the adverse reactions rate in observation group was 8.3%(4/48),while in the control group was 12.5%(6/48),the difference was not statistically significant(
