In the control group,the conventional medication was adopted. The original life style was remained. Before treatment,1,3 and 6 months after treatment,FEV1,FVC,FEV1%,FEV1 /FVC and 6min walking distance were monitored in the patients of the two groups. Results FEV1,FVC,FEV1%,FEV1 /FVC and 6min walking distance were different significantly after 6 months in the treatment group as compared with those in the control group( P < 0. 05).
