Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of Fuzbeng-Liqi mixture on hepatitis resulted from anti-tuberculosis drugs.Methods 100 inpatients of hepatitis resulted from anti-tuberculosis drugs during January 2005 to December 2007 were randomly sorted out into a treatment group and a control group.The treatment group was treated with Fuzbeng-Liqi mixture,and the control group was treated with routine drugs.The effect was analyzed by 2/2 test.Results The therapeutic effect of the treatment group markedly excelled than the control group in terms of symptoms improvement such as nausea or vomit,tiredness,icterus,bepatalgia,or augment of liver.Conclusion Fuzbeng-Liqi mixture was not only able to ameliorate the clinical manifestations of drug-induced hepatitis,but also improve hepatic function.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the combined effect of octreotide and Dachaihu decoction on the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).METHODS:Wistar rats (n=50) were randomly divided into sham group, SAP group, octreotide group, Dachaihu decoction group and combination group.The quantity of ascites was measured.The levels of amylase, alanine aminotransferase and creatinine in the serum were examined.The morphological changes of the pancreatic tissues were observed by HE staining.The activation of NF-κB and IκBαexpression were determined by Western blot.The mRNA expression with ICAM-1 and IL-1 was detected by qPCR.RESULTS: Combined treatment with octreotide and Dachaihu decoction effectively reduced the quantity of ascites and the levels of amylase, alanine aminotransferase and creat-inine in the serum in SAP rats.Moreover, combined treatment significantly inhibited SAP-induced activation of NF-κB and decrease in IκBαprotein expression, accompanied by a decrease in ICAM-1 and IL-1 mRNA expression.CONCLU-SION:Combination of octreotide with Dachaihu decoction effectively attenuates SAP by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway and ICAM-1 and IL-1 expression.

Objective:The surveillance results of brucellosis in Lushan County, Pingdingshan City, Henan Province are analyzed to provide basis for formulating prevention and control strategies.Methods:Retrospective analysis method was used to collect the surveillance data from Lushan County Center for Disease Control and Prevention and Animal Husbandry Department from 2011 to 2019. Descriptive statistical analysis was made on the serological, pathogenic of brucellosis.Results:From 2011 to 2019, 15 943 high-risk people were investigated, and 10 834 were serologically tested, with a positive detection rate of 23.11% (2 504/10 834). Among them, the positive detection rate of brucellosis serum increased rapidly in 2013 and decreased after 2016. The positive detection rate was 25.87% (1 593/6 157) in men and 19.48% (911/4 677) in women. The age of positive detection was mainly 40-< 70 years old, accounting for 70.45% (1 764/2 504). The positive detection rate of farmers in all occupations was the highest, which was 25.97% (2 242/8 634). There were significant differences in the positive detection rates among different gender, age and occupation (χ 2=61.163, 27.855, 257.412, P < 0.01). A total of 578 blood samples from patients with acute brucellosis were isolated and cultured, 215 strains of Brucella were detected, and the positive detection rate was 37.20%. Conclusions:The high-risk group of human brucellosis in Lushan County, Pingdingshan City is middle-aged and elderly male farmers engaged in aquaculture. It is suggested that the joint prevention and control measures should be strengthened, the health education of high-risk groups should be strengthened, and comprehensive prevention and control measures should be taken to control the occurrence and prevalence of brucellosis.
