OBJECTIVE: To prepare Jinlei capsule and evaluate its quality. METHODS: Wet granulation was adopted. The molding technology of Jinlei capsule content granule was optimized with drug-excipient ratio, excipient ratio and ethanol volume fraction as factors, using comprehensive score of particle forming rate, moisture content and fluidity as the evaluation index. According to 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia (part Ⅳ), the characters, moisture, volume difference, disintegration time limit were checked. Qualitative identification of Gentianopsis paludosa and Lysimachia christinale were analysed by TLC, and quantitative analysis of luteolin and kaempferol were analysed by HPLC. RESULTS: The optimal molding technology of Jinlei capsule content granule was that the maltodextrin and the micro-silica gel are mixed as a mixed auxiliary material according to 10 ∶ 1 and then mixed with the drug powder by 1 ∶ 0.5, using the wet granulation method with 90% ethanol as wetting agent. The characters, moisture, volume difference and disintegration time limit of Jinlei capsule were in line with Chinese Pharmacopoeia. TLC showed the same color spots on the corresponding positions of the reference chromatogram. The linear range of luteolin and kaempferol were 4.4-88.0 μg/mL and 9.6-96.0 μg/mL (all r=0.999 9). RSD of precision (n=6), reproducibility (n=6) and stability (18 h, n=7) tests were all lower than 2.5%. The average recoveries were 95.74% and 99.77% (RSD=1.50%, 2.72%, n=6); the content of them were 2.52, 0.34 mg/g. CONCLUSIONS: The optimal molding technology of Jinlei capsule is stable and feasible; prepared Jinlei capsule in controllable in quality.

Ten batches of Angelica sinensis from three producing areas( Tuoxiang,Minxian and Weiyuan of Gansu province) were selected as the research objects,and processed into raw A. sinensis,A. sinensis with alcohol,and A. sinensis with soil respectively through the standard processing methods. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography( UPLC) was used to establish fingerprint for three processed products of A. sinensis,and determine the contents of 9 phenolic acids and phthalide compounds. The similarity was analyzed with Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine,which showed that the chromatographic peaks of the same processed samples of A. sinensis were basically similar,with all similarities greater than 0. 950. The difference between different processed products and their control spectra was not obvious,with all similarities also higher than 0. 950.On the basis of using principal component analysis( PCA) and OPLS-DA to seek the difference components between groups,the improved distance coefficient method can be used to effectively distinguish the three processed products of A. sinensis by fingerprint similarity. At the same time,the determination method of nine phenolic acids and phthalide in A. sinensis was established by UPLC,and the comparison between different processed products was carried out. The results showed that the content of various components was changed as compared with the raw A. sinensis. The contents of coniferyl ferulate and ligustilide in the A. sinensis with alcohol were increased significantly,and the content of coniferyl ferulate was obviously increased in A. sinensis with soil. The method established in this paper can effectively distinguish different processed products of A. sinensis and determine the content of the main components in them.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy differences between acupoint plaster therapy with midnight-noon ebb-flow hour-prescription method and traditional acupoint plaster therapy for senile osteoporosis (SOP).
METHODSWith randomized controlled blind design, 76 SOP patients with deficiency of liver and kidney syndrome were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, 38 cases in each one. Based on oral administration of caltrate D, the patients in the observation group were treated with acupoint plaster therapy with midnight-noon ebb-flow hour-prescription method at Yingu (KI 10), Taixi (KI 3), Dazhong (KI 4), Fuliu (KI 7) and Zhiyin (BL 67), while the patients in the control group were treated with traditional acupoint plaster therapy. Each plaster therapy lasted for 6 h, once a day; there was an interval of 2 d after consecutive 5-day treatment; 4 weeks were taken as one course, and totally 2 courses were given. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to evaluate the pain and dysfunction before intervention, after 4 weeks and 8 weeks intervention. Osteoporosis symptom rating sale and quality of life questionnaire of the European foundation for Osteoporosis (QUALEFFO-41) were adopted to evaluate the TCM syndrome and quality of life before and after 8-week intervention.
RESULTSAll the outcomes were significantly improved after treatment in the two groups (<0.01,<0.05); after 4 weeks and 8 weeks of treatment, the VAS and ODI in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all<0.05). Repeated ANOVA indicated the VAS and ODI were significant in group effect, time effect and interaction effect (all<0.01). Further comparison showed that VAS and ODI at later time points were lower than those in the early time points (all<0.01). After the treatment, the scores of TCM syndrome and QUALEFFO-41 in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all<0.05). The effective rate was 85.7% (30/35) in the observation group, which was superior to the effective rate in the control group[74.3%(26/35),<0.05].
CONCLUSIONSThe acupoint plaster therapy with midnight-noon ebb-flow hour-prescription method is superior to traditional acupoint plaster therapy in improving pain, dysfunction, TCM syndrome and quality of life in SOP patients; in addition, its clinical efficacy is significant.
