Qing-Xin-Jiao-Tai Decoction for Insomnia Comorbid With Obesity Presenting With Heart-Kidney Non-interaction Syndrome

This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of Qing-Xin-Jiao-Tai Decoction (QXJTD), a Traditional Chinese Medicine formula, in treating adults (aged 18-65) suffering from both insomnia and obesity. Specifically, the study targets patients diagnosed with Heart-Kidney Non-interaction syndrome. In this study, 72 eligible participants will be randomly assigned to receive either QXJTD granules or a matching placebo twice daily for 8 weeks. Both groups will concurrently receive a personalized lifestyle intervention program that includes structured dietary and exercise guidance. The primary purpose of this research is to determine if QXJTD combined with lifestyle modifications can significantly improve sleep quality and promote weight loss compared to the placebo. The primary endpoints evaluated will be objective sleep parameters measured via overnight polysomnography, the percentage of body weight lost, and subjective sleep improvements assessed by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). By evaluating these outcomes, the researchers hope to provide a safe and effective integrative treatment strategy for patients struggling with this complex comorbidity.
