Abstract:
Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of rude rhubarb on intestinal barrier in septic patients. Methods A total of 40 septic patients were enrolled in this study and randomly divided into two groups:rude rhubarb treatment group(a=18)and control group(n=22).The ratio of laetulose to mannitol(L/M)and D-lactate were determined on the first day and the 6th day after patients were enrolled.Results No signifieant differences were found on L/M and D-lactate in plasma on the first day between the rude rhubarb treatment group and the control group(P>0.05). The L/M on the 6th day in the eontrol group was(0.1674?0.0361),and that in the rude rhubarb treatment group was (0.0621?0.0128)(P<0.05).D-laetate in plasma in the 6 th day in the the rude rhubarb treatment group was(0.09?0.03)mmol/L,and was obviously lower than that in the control group(0.24?0.06)mmol/L(P<0.05). Conclusion Rude rhubarb can improve the intestinal barrier.
