摘要:This paper introduces the clinical experience of Lu’s acupuncture and moxibustion in the treatment of diplopia. It is believed that the etiology and pathogenesis of diplopia are external pathogenic factors blocking collaterals, deficiency of qi and blood, deficiency of the liver and kidney, and stagnation of qi and blood stasis. During the treatment, we should pay attention to treatment based on syndrome differentiation and follow the three principles of “local acupoints to dredge local meridian qi”, “distal acupoints to regulate whole body qi and blood” and “selecting corresponding Back-Shu acupoints to regulate the function of zang-fu organs”.

摘要:This paper explores the academic experience of Professor Yan Dexin, a master of Chinese medicine, on the treatment of insomnia based on the theory of qi and blood. When treating the disease, Professor Yan Dexin would distinguish whether it was a new disease or a chronic one, a deficiency syndrome or an excess one, and chose prescriptions attached importance to regulating qi, promoting blood circulation and tranquilizing the mind. The basic treatment principle for excess syndrome was to soothe the liver and regulate qi, calm the heart and tranquilize the spirit, and the modified prescriptions with Chaihu(Radix Bupleuri) were often used. For deficiency syndrome, the principle was to strengthen the spleen and replenish qi, nourish blood and tranquilize the spirit, and the prescriptions were mainly the modified Guipi Decoction or Suanzaoren Decoction. With the development of the disease and changes of pathogenesis, some effective medicines were added into the prescriptions for regulating the functions of zang-fu organs and removing pathological products such as phlegm-fire and blood stasis. In addition, He was good at the application of synergistic couplet medicines and powerful tranquilizers, especially at the application of Huanglian(Rhizoma Coptidis) with unique characteristics.

摘要:Xiaokebing (diabetes mellitus) is closely related to diet and there have been a lot of description about food taboos of Xiaokebing since ancient times. The thoughts originated in the Huangdi Neijing (Yellow Emperor’s Inner Canon of Medicine) and the specific discussion about them first occurred in the Shanghɑn Zabinglun (Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases). This theory had been accumulated and perfected in many medical books in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern dynasties . By the Tang dynasty, the theory had been more mature and formed its own system in the Waitai Miyao (Medical Secrets of an Official) and Yixinfang(Ishinpo). This paper systematically summarizes the description of food taboos of Xiaokebing in the classical medical books before the Tang dynasty and analyses its inherent laws to help expand and deepen academic research on diabetic diet.

摘要:Objective:To observe the effects of Yiqi Yangyin Formula on radiation pneumonitis(RP) and lung function in patients undergoing postoperative radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (stage IIIa). Methods60 patients undergoing postoperative radiotherapy for NSCLC (stage IIIa) were randomly assigned into treatment group and control group, 30 patients in each group. The control group received routine radiotherapy after operation, and the treatment group received Yiqi Yangyin Formula in addition. Both groups were treated for 28 days. Changes in classification of acute RP (RTOG classification) and in lung function were observed. Results:①During the trial, there were 1 and 3 drop-outs in the treatment and the control groups respectively; and 56 patients finally completed the trial, including 29 in the treatment group and 27 in the control group.②At 2 months after radiotherapy, there was statistically significant difference in RTOG grade in the treatment group (P<0.05), while there was no statistically significant difference in the control group (P>0.05) compared to that at the end of radiotherapy. At the end of radiotherapy, there was no statistically significant difference in RTOG grade between the groups (P>0.05), and no statistically significant difference in the incidence of RP between the treatment group (72.41%) and the control group (85.19%) (P>0.05). At 2 months after radiotherapy, there was statistically significant difference in RTOG grade between the groups; and in the treatment group, the incidence of RP was significantly lower than in the control group (37.93% vs. 85.19%), and the degree of inflammation was significantly lower than in the control group (P<0.05). ③There was no significant difference in FVC, FEV1 or MVV in the groups at the end of radiotherapy compared to that before radiotherapy (P>0.05). FVC, FEV1 and MVV decreased significantly in the control group(P<0.05) and they remained stable in the treatment group with no statistically significant differences (P>0.05) at 2 months after radiotherapy compared to those before radiotherapy. At the end of radiotherapy, there was no significant difference in FVC, FEV1 or MVV between the groups (P>0.05). At 2 months after radiotherapy, the differences in FVC, FEV1 and MVV were statistically significant between the groups, significantly higher in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). ④Variance analysis of repeated measures data showed that there was statistical significance in the time factor and the time x group factor in intra-group variation of FVC, FEV1 and MVV (P<0.05), and there was no statistical significance in the group factor in inter-group variation (P>0.05). Conclusion:Yiqi Yangyin Formula can stabilize the lung function of patients undergoing postoperative radiotherapy for NSCLC (stage IIIa) to a certain extent, lower the incidence of radiation pneumonitis, and help to reduce the degree of the inflammation.

摘要:Objective:To study the endometrial thickness, volume, endometrial blood flow pattern and uterine blood flow parameters at midluteal phase in patients with persistent thin endometrium and the effect of Ma’s Bubao Decoction combined with acupuncture on endometrial receptivity (ER) in them. MethodsNinety cases of persistent thin endometrium of childbearing age were randomly divided into treatment group and control group, 45 cases in each group . In addition, 30 women of normal childbearing age in the same period were included as normal control group .The control group was treated with aspirin, while the treatment group was treated with Ma’s Bubao Decoction and acupuncture on the basis of aspirin. Both groups were treated for 2 months (suspend treatment during menstrual period) and then the changes of endometrial thickness, volume, endometrial blood flow pattern, uterine blood flow hemodynamic parameters and TCM syndrome scores at midluteal phase were observed. Results:①During the experiment, there were 3 cases dropped in the treatment group (due to interruption of treatment), 2 cases in the control group, and no drop in the normal control group. Totally 115 cases completed the experiment, 42 cases in the treatment group, 43 cases in the control group and 30 cases in the normal control group. ②At midluteal phase, the thickness and volume of endometrium in the thin endometrium group were significantly lower than those in the normal control group (P < 0.05); the levels of endometrial blood flow S/D and uterine artery blood flow mPI, mRI and mS/D were significantly higher than those in the normal control group (P < 0.05); the difference of endometrial blood flow pattern between the two groups was significant (P < 0.05). ③In the midluteal phase, there were significant differences in endometrial thickness, endometrial volume, endometrial blood flow S/D, uterine artery blood flow mPI and endometrial blood flow pattern compared with those before treatment within both groups (P < 0.05), and there were significant differences in the uterine artery blood flow mS/D in the treatment group (P<0.05). There were significant differences in endometrial thickness, endometrial blood flow S/D and uterine artery mS/D between the two groups after treatment. The improvement of the above indexes in the treatment group was significantly better than that in the control group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in endometrial blood flow pattern (P>0.05). ④ There were significant differences in TCM syndrome scores compared with those before treatment within both groups (P<0.05). All of them were significantly decreased after treatment. After treatment, the TCM syndrome scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion:①The resistance of uterine blood flow at midluteal phase of persistent thin endometrium patients was significantly higher than that of normal women, and the endometrial thickness and volume were significantly decreased. ②On the basis of oral aspirin, the combination of Ma’s Bubao Decoction and acupuncture can improve the clinical symptoms of patients with persistent thin endometrium, increase the thickness and volume of endometrium and enhance the blood flow perfusion of the uterus,which are conducive to the improvement of endometrial receptivity.  
摘要:Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of sclerosing foam combined with point-stage stripping in the treatment of varicose veins of the lower limbs under local anesthesia by Fushe acupoint injection. Methods100 patients with varicose veins of the lower limbs were randomly assigned into treatment group and control group, 50 patients in each group. The treatment group was given sclerosing foam combined with point-stage stripping under local anesthesia by Fushe acupoint injection and the control group received high ligation of the great saphenous vein combined with stripping under lumbar anesthesia. Regular follow-up was performed for a year after operation. Clinical efficacy and relapse were observed, and intraoperative measures (blood loss and operation duration), duration of hospitalization (days) and postoperative adverse reactions (nausea and vomiting, urinary retention and limb numbness) and complications (wound infection, ecchymosis or hematoma and pain) were compared. Results:①The cure rate was 96.0% and 98.0% in the treatment and control groups, respectively with no significant difference between the groups (P<0.05). ②Blood loss and duration of hospitalization decreased significantly in the treatment group compared to the control group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in operation duration between the groups (P>0.05). ③Good post-operative recovery was seen in the treatment group, with no patients showing post-operative reactions including nausea, vomiting, urinary retention or limb numbness. Acceptable recovery was seen in the control group, with 10 patients showing the post-operative reactions mentioned above. ④In terms of post-operative complications, there was significant decrease in wound infection, ecchymosis or hematoma and pain in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). ⑤1 and 8 patients had relapse in the treatment and control groups respectively during follow-up, and the relapse rate was significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with high ligation of the great saphenous vein combined with stripping under traditional lumbar anesthesia, sclerosing foam combined with point-stage stripping under local anesthesia by Fushe acupoint injection shows advantages in the treatment of varicose veins, including decreased blood loss, shorter duration of hospitalization, less postoperative complications, decreased wound infections, less pain and lower relapse rate.

摘要:Objective:To observe the effect of Yigong Powder on repair of spleen tissue structure by inhibiting inflammatory reactions in mice with anemia of chronic disease(ACD). MethodsSixty 8-week-old male C57 BL/6 mice were randomly assigned into blank control group, model group and Yigong Powder group, 20 mice in each group. Except the blank control group, the model of mice with ACD was copied in the other groups (lipopolysaccharide and zymosan A were injected intraperitoneally at day 1 and day 7 respectively). At 5 days after injection of zymosan A, Decoction of Yigong Powder (15.413 g·kg-1·d-1) was administered by gavage to mice in the Yigong Powder group and 0.2 ml of ultra-pure water was given by gavage to the blank control and model groups. After 1 week and 2 weeks of treatment, whole blood was collected, white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil count and hemoglobin level were determined with an automated cell counter; the spleen tissue was isolated to observe the structure by HE staining; and mitochondria of spleen was observed under electron microscope. Results:Compared to the blank control group, WBC count and neutrophil count increased and the hemoglobin level decreased (P<0.01), the spleen enlarged significantly, the spleen index increased (P<0.01), and the normal structure of mitochondria disappeared in spleen tissue in the model group. After 1 week and 2 weeks of treatment, compared to the model group, WBC count and neutrophil count decreased significantly and the hemoglobin level increased significantly (P<0.01); the spleen shrank significantly (P<0.01), and the spleen index decreased (P<0.01) in the Yigong Powder group. The mitochondrial structure was observed to be close to normal under electron microscope, and the number of damaged mitochondria was reduced. Conclusion:Yigong Powder improves anemia in mice with ACD by inhibiting inflammatory reactions and reducing damage to the spleen tissue structure caused by inflammatory factors.

摘要:Objective:To study the effect of Wenshen Formula on the expression of group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2)-related molecules in asthmatic mice. MethodsThirty BALB/c mice were randomly assigned into the normal control (NC) group, the IL-33 group, the Western medicine (PRE) group, the Wenshen Formula (WSF) group and the combination (CO) group, 6 mice in each group. Except the normal control group, rmIL-33 nasal drops (0.4 μg/40 μl) were given to the other 4 groups for 6 consecutive days and starting at day 7, the drug was administered once every other day for 1 week. Drug invention was given by gavage for 15 days to the PRE group (prednisone acetate 1.125 g/kg), WSF group (Wenshen Formula 9 g/kg) and CO group (Wenshen Formula + prednisone acetate) at 1 hour before nasal administration. Lung tissue was stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE) to observe morphology of the tissue and infiltration of inflammatory cells. ELISA was used to detect the expression of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of RORα in lung tissue. Results:①Compared to the NC group, the mucosal folds of lung tissue were thicker and infiltration of inflammatory cells was more obvious in the IL-33 group. Infiltration of inflammatory cells was reduced significantly in the WSF, PRE and CO groups. ②Compared to the NC group, the expression levels of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 in BALF of mice increased significantly in the IL-33 group (P<0.001). The expression levels of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 in BALF were reduced in the WSF, PRE and CO groups, with significant differences compared to the IL-33 group (P<0.01). ③Compared to the NC group, the expression of ILC2 RORα mRNA in lung tissue was increased significantly in the IL-33 group (P<0.001). The expression of RORα mRNA in lung tissue was down- regulated in the WSF, PRE and CO groups, with statistically significant differences compared to the IL-33 group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Wenshen Formula reduces infiltration of the airway inflammatory cells and alleviates asthmatic inflammation in mice. It down-regulates the expression of IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 and of RORα mRNA.  
摘要:Objective:To explore the mechanism of action of Feiyanning Recipe (FYN) in inhibiting invasion of the A549 lung cancer cells by regulating metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1). MethodsThe A549 cells transfected with LV-vector and LV-over/MALAT1 were treated with FYN (0~500 μg/ml). The expression of MALAT1 was detected by qRT-PCR; the effect of FYN on tumor cell proliferation was determined by MTT colorimetric assay; the invasive ability of tumor was determined by cell invasion test; and the expression of Wnt/β-catenin/EMT signaling pathway related proteins in A549 cells was detected by Western blotting. Results:Results of the cell invasion test indicated that MALAT1 overexpression strengthened the invasive ability of the A549 cells, and there was significant difference compared to the normal control group and the lentivirus vector group (P<0.01). Compared to the normal control group, FYN inhibited invasion of the A549 cells, with significant difference (P<0.01), but the ability of FYN to inhibit cell invasion was reduced after MALAT1 overexpression. Results: of MTT colorimetric assay showed that FYN inhibited proliferation of the A549 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Results: of qRT-PCR indicated that FYN down-regulated the expression of MALAT1. Results: of Western blotting showed that MALAT1 down-regulated E-cadherin and up-regulated N-cadherin, Snail and β-catenin in the nucleus, whereas FYN up-regulated E-cadherin and down-regulated N-cadherin, Snail and β-catenin in the nucleus, but MALAT1 overexpression reduced the regulatory effect of FYN on these proteins. Conclusion:MALAT1 overexpression promotes lung cancer cell invasion by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and accelerating the EMT progress. Feiyanning Recipe inhibits invasion of the A549 lung cancer cells by down-regulating MALAT1 and suppressing the Wnt/β-catenin/EMT signal axis.

Methods48 SD rats were randomly assigned into normal group, model group, simvastatin (2.08 mg/kg) group, low-dose (8.28 g/kg), middle-dose (16.56 g/kg) and high-dose (33.12 g/kg) Yinqi Tiaozhi Decoction groups. Except the normal group, high-fat diet was given to rats in the other 5 groups for 12 weeks to establish the NAFLD rat model. After successful modeling, corresponding drugs were administered by gavage to the drug groups, and 0.9% NaCl solution of equal volume was given by gavage to the normal and model groups. At 8 weeks of treatment, wet weight of the liver and liver index were calculated, the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), cholesterol (TC) and triglyceride (TG) in serum were detected; the levels of TC, TG, malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and free fatty acid (FFA) in liver tissue were determined by ELISA; hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and oil red O staining were performed to observe the pathology of liver tissue; and the relative expression of liver X receptor α (LXRα) and sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) in liver tissue was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results:①Compared to the normal group, the body mass, wet weight of the liver and liver index increased (P<0.05); the levels of ALT, AST, TC and TG in serum increased (P<0.05), the levels of TC, TG, MDA and FFA, the relative expression of LXRα and SREBP-1c mRNA in liver tissue increased (P<0.05) and the SOD level decreased (P<0.05) in the model group. ②Compared to the model group, the body mass, wet weight of the liver and liver index decreased (P<0.05); the levels of ALT, AST, TC and TG in serum decreased (P<0.05), the levels of TC, TG, MDA and FFA and the relative expression of LXRα and SREBP-1c mRNA in liver tissue decreased (P<0.05) and the SOD level increased (P<0.05) in the simvastatin group and Yinqi Tiaozhi Decoction groups. ③Compared to the simvastatin group, the levels of ALT and AST in serum decreased in the middle-dose and high-dose Yinqi Tiaozhi Decoction groups (P<0.05), the body mass, wet weight of the liver and liver index decreased, the levels of FFA and MDA and the relative expression of LXRα mRNA and SREBP-1c mRNA decreased (P<0.05), and the SOD level increased (P<0.05) in the high-dose Yinqi Tiaozhi Decoction group. ④The body mass, wet weight of the liver and liver index decreased significantly in the high-dose group compared to the low-dose group (P<0.05); the levels of ALT and AST in serum decreased in the middle-dose group compared to the low-dose group (P<0.05), and the levels of ALT, AST, TC and TG decreased in the high-dose group compared to the low-dose group (P<0.05). The levels of TC and TG (middle-dose group vs. low-dose group) and of FFA, MDA and SOD (high-dose group vs. low- and middle-dose groups) decreased significantly with increase in dose; and the relative expression of LXRα mRNA and SREBP-1c mRNA in liver tissue decreased in the high-dose group compared to the low-dose group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Yinqi Tiaozhi Decoction reduces significantly the levels of blood and liver lipid in in rats with NAFLD, inhibits lipid accumulation, reduces oxidative stress, protects liver function, and improves pathological injury of the liver. The mechanism of action may be related with inhibition of the expression of LXRα and SREBP-1c.  
摘要:Objective:To establish the method of quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) in the determination of five flavonoids in the flower of Salix caprea L. MethodsUsing rutin as the reference substance, the relative correction factors of luteolin-7-O-β-D-pyranoside, apigenin-7-O-β-D-pyranoside, luteolin and apigenin were calculated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Related influencing factors were investigated and the relative correction factors were determined. The content of the other four components was calculated directly using the content of rutin and the relative correction factors to establish the QAMS method with rutin as the reference substance. The results were compared with those obtained by external standard method. Results:The relative correction factors were fluteolin-7-O-β-D- pyranoside / rutin =1.49 (RSD=1.84%), fapigenin-7-O-β-glucopyranoside / rutin =2.26 (RSD=2.26%), fluteolin / rutin =2.63 (RSD=1.01%) and fapigenin / rutin =2.86 (RSD=1.55%), with good repeatability. There were no significant differences between the values obtained with the QAMS method and those obtained with external standard method, and the correction factor obtained was reliable. Conclusion:It is feasible and accurate to determine the content of five flavonoids in flower of Salix caprea L. by the QAMS method, which can be used for quality evaluation of the flower.

摘要:This paper reviews the relationship between macrophage polarization and atherosclerosis and the intervention effects of traditional Chinese medicine. M1 type macrophage polarization can promote the development of atherosclerosis, while M2 type macrophage polarization plays a dual role on atherosclerosis. The extracts of traditional Chinese medicine such as Danshen(Radix SalviaeMiltiorrhizae), Chuɑnxinlian(HerbaAnorographitis), Jianghuang(RhizomaCurcumaeLongae), Guipi(Cortex CinnamomiJaponici), Huɑnglian(RhizomaCoptidis)can control the progression of atherosclerosis by regulating the polarization of macrophages.
