Clinical Trial Data on Post-Hemorrhoidectomy Anal Fullness Interventions

A clinical trial dataset from a prospective 2x2 factorial-design study involving 120 patients with Grade II/III internal hemorrhoids. The study evaluated the individual and combined effects of Kangfuxin solution perianal warm moist compress and music therapy on postoperative anal fullness, symptom duration, and quality of life. The dataset was published by Fen Gao on figshare in May 2026 under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Compare treatment efficacy based on Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores for anal fullness.
• Analyze the additive effects of two distinct interventions (Kangfuxin compress and music therapy) using factorial ANOVA results.
• Model predictors of postoperative quality of life based on WHOQOL-BREF scores.
• Assess the relationship between intervention type and symptom duration reported in days.

Strengths

• Dataset is based on a randomized controlled trial with 120 patients across four groups (n=30 per group).
• Study design is a prospective 2x2 factorial design, allowing for analysis of main effects and interaction.
• Outcomes include multiple validated measures: VAS scores, WHOQOL-BREF scores, symptom duration, and total effective rate.
• Statistical analysis is detailed, reporting specific F-values and p-values for main effects and interaction.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is very small (15.1 KB), indicating limited scope, likely summary statistics rather than patient-level data.
