Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of Tuina (Chinese therapeutic massage) plus Shen Ling Bai Zhu San for pediatric diarrhea due to spleen deficiency.Methods: A total of 105 children with diarrhea due to spleen deficiency were selected and randomized into two groups by the random number table method. Fifty-two cases in the control group were treated with oral Shen Ling Bai Zhu San, and 53 cases in the observation group were treated with additional Tuina treatment. The clinical efficacy was evaluated after treatment, and the changes of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom scores were observed. Results: During the trial, there were three dropouts in the observation group, and two in the control group. After the treatment, the total effective rate was 100.0% in the observation group, and 90.0% in the control group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of primary and secondary symptoms, and the total scores of TCM symptoms in both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P<0.05). And the scores of primary and secondary symptoms, and the total score of TCM symptoms in the observation group after treatment were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). There were no obvious adverse reactions in either group during the treatment. Conclusion: Tuina plus Shen Ling Bai Zhu San has a better therapeutic effect in treating pediatric diarrhea due to spleen deficiency than Shen Ling Bai Zhu San alone.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of α1-adrenergic blockers for treating young men with primary bladder neck obstruction (PBNO). Methods A retrospective review was done of the presenting symptoms and videourodynamic findings of 22 young men younger than 35 years with PBNO. Mean age was 28 years (range 18 to 35). The presenting symptoms were hesitancy in 21 (95%), weak stream in 17(77%), frequency in 16(73%), urgency in 8(36%) and pelvic pain in 6 (27%). Mean symptom duration was 28(3-62)months. A dose of 4 mg Doxazosion was adminis-tered for at least 6 months. International prostate symptom score(IPSS), Quality of life(QOL), uro-flowmetry, post-void residual urine and blood pressure were assessed before and 6 months after medi-cation. Improved urine flow was defined as at least 3 ml. per second increase in the maximum flow rate. Improved symptom was defined as more than a 40% decrease in IPSS. Successful treatment was defined as improved in urine flow and symptoms. Results Follow-up data were available for 21 of 22 patients. The medication period was 8.7±2.5 months and follow-up duration was 12.3±4.9 months. Mean Ⅰ-PSS decreased from 16.9±3.7 to 10.7±4.5. Mean QOL decreased from 4.3±1.2 to 2.5±1.0. Mean maximum flow rate increased from (9.8±3.5)ml to (14.9±3.6)ml. per second. Mean post-void residual urine decreased from (78.2±35.6)ml to (46.5±19.4)ml. There were significant differences(P<0.01). Treatment was successful in 14 patients (67%). Drug tolerability was good. Mean blood pressure was (110.0±7.9)/ (75.0±5.9)mm Hg and (107.0±8.7)/(72.0±7.1)mm Hg before medicine therapy and after 6 months medication(P>0.05). Conclusions Videourody-namics is the diagnostic gold standard of PBNO. In our experience α1-adrenergic blockers are clinically effective therapy and safety for PBNO and have been well tolerated in young male patients.

Objective To study the influence of blood glucose, blood lipids and other cerebral infarction risk factors in the mean platelet volume (MPV). Methods A total of 562 patients with cerebral infarction and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and 216 cerebral infarction patients without DM (non-DM) were included in this study. The platelet parameter of peripheral blood and other laboratory indexes were detected including platelet count (PLT), MPV, platelet distribution width (PDW), plateletcrit (PCT), fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL-C), urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), uric acid (UA), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and homocysteine (HCY). The patients were scored by the National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) after hospitalization. The MPV changes in patients with cerebral infarction were observed, and different influences of blood glucose, blood lipids to MPV were analysed. Results Values of FBG, HbA1c, TC, TG, LDL-C, BUN, UA, HCY, hs-CRP, and NIHSS were significantly higher in DM group than those of non-DM group. The score of NIHSS was significantly higher in DM group than that of non-DM group. The level of HDL-C was significantly lower in DM group than that of non-DM grou. The MPV was significantly higher in DM group than that of non-DM group [(9.60 ± 1.35) fL vs. (9.27 ± 1.01) fL, P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between MPV and FBG, HbA1c, hs-CRP, WBC, VLDL-C and NIHSS, r=0.438, 0.410, 0.336, 0.164, 0.321 and 0.249 (P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that FBG, VLDL-C, HbA1c, hs-CRP and NIHSS were the independent influential factors of MPV (P<0.05). Conclusion The influencing factors of MPV should be controlled in patients with cerebral infarction combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus, reducing the activation of platelet, and delaying the progress of cerebral infarction.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of warm needling moxibustion plus isokinetic muscle strength training for knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Methods: A total of 135 patients with KOA due to Yang deficiency and coagulated cold were randomized into a warm needling moxibustion group, an isokinetic muscle strength training group, and a combined group by the random number table method, with 45 cases in each group. The warm needling moxibustion group was treated with warm needling moxibustion. The isokinetic muscle strength training group was treated with isokinetic muscle strength training. The combined group was treated with warm needling moxibustion plus isokinetic muscle strength training. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) and visual analog scale (VAS) were scored before and after treatment, and isokinetic indicators of peak torque (PT), total work (TW) and average power (AP) were evaluated. Results: The total effective rate of the combined group was 92.5%, which was significantly higher than 83.3% in the warm needling moxibustion group (P<0.05) and 72.5% in the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of WOMAC (total, pain, stiffness, and function) and VAS, and isokinetic indicators (PT, TW, and AP) were all improved compared with those before treatment (P<0.05) in all three groups. The differences among the three groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The WOMAC total score and score of stiffness in the combined group were lower than those in the warm needling moxibustion group and the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P<0.05), and the scores in the warm needling moxibustion group were lower than those in the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P<0.05). The WOMAC score of pain and VAS score in the warm needling moxibustion group and the combined group were lower than those in the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P<0.05). The differences between the warm needling moxibustion group and the combined group were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The WOMAC function score in the combined group was lower than that in the warm needling moxibustion group and the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P<0.05), while there was no statistical difference between the warm needling moxibustion group and the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P>0.05). PT, TW, and AP in the combined group were higher than those in the warm needling moxibustion group and the isokinetic muscle strength training group (P<0.05), and they were higher in the isokinetic muscle strength training group than in the warm needling moxibustion group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Warm needling moxibustion plus isokinetic muscle strength training has a better effect in the treatment of KOA due to Yang deficiency and coagulated cold than either warm needling moxibustion or isokinetic muscle strength training alone.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of back-Shu and front-Mu points combination needling on balance and walking function in patients after stroke and its mechanism. Methods:A total of 79 patients with post-stroke balance and walking dysfunction were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group.Both groups received conventional treatments such as dietary guidance and oral medications as well as rehabilitation training.On this basis,the control group was treated with additional conventional acupuncture,and the observation group was treated with additional back-Shu and front-Mu points combination needling.Both groups were treated for 4 consecutive weeks.The thickness of abdominal muscle group(transverse abdominal muscle,rectus abdominis,obliquus internus abdominis,and obliquus externus abdominis),the scores of Berg balance scale(BBS),Fugl-Meyer assessment(FMA),and functional ambulation categories(FAC),and walking velocity and stride were compared between the two groups. Results:During the trial,there was 1 dropout case in the control group and 4 dropout cases in the observation group.Before treatment,there were no statistical differences in the abdominal muscle group thickness,scores of BBS,FMA,and FAC,and walking velocity and stride between the two groups(P>0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,the thickness of abdominal muscle groups,scores of BBS,FMA,and FAC,and walking velocity and stride in both groups were improved(P<0.01),and the observation group was superior to the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:Both conventional acupuncture and back-Shu and front-Mu points combination needling are conducive to the improvement of balance and walking function in patients after stroke.The back-Shu and front-Mu points combination needling method has better curative efficacy.Strengthening the core muscle group strength may be one of the mechanisms of back-Shu and front-Mu points combination needling treatment.

The HPLC fingerprint differences ofRadix Platycodonis from different origins were studied to provide references for their quality control and production. The total platycodins were purified by DB101 macroporous resin. HPLC-ELSD fingerprints of the total platycodins for 39 batches ofRadix Platycodonis samples from 9 provinces were performed on an Agilent HC-C8 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5μm) with gradient elution. The mobile phase was acetonitrile-0.5% acetic acid. The injection volume was 6μL. The flow rate was 0.5 mL·min-1. The temperature of drift tube was set at 90℃. And the gas flow (N2) was set at 1.2 mL·min-1. The results showed that there were large differences in the quality ofRadix Platycodonis from different origins with the common fingerprints of 6 batches of samples fromChifeng in Inner Mongolia as references. The quality ofRadix Platycodonis was closely related to the seeds, the ecological environment, the way of drying and storing and so on. It was concluded that it was important to strengthen the provenance base construction, standardization of the seeds, reasonable formulation of the regionalization, and standardization of the production processing for the cultivation and production ofRadix Platycodonis.

This study was aimed to compare the expectorant and antitussive actions ofPlatycodon grandilforum from different production areas in order to provide references for its cultivation and production. The antitussive activities ofP. grandilforum water extract from different areas were investigated through testing the cough times induced by ammonium hydroxide in mice. And the expectorant activities were studied by testing the amount of tracheal phenolsulfonphthalein excretion in mice. The results showed that the minimum effective dose ofP. grandiflorum fromChifeng of Inner Mongolia was 0.2 g·kg-1. Under this dosage,P. grandiflorum fromChifeng of Inner Mongolia can significantly reduce the cough frequency in mice (P < 0.01), and significantly prolong the cough incubation period in mice (P < 0.01).P. grandiflorum fromSichuan province,Shangzhou ofShaanxi province andChongqing can significantly decrease the cough frequency in mice (P < 0.05). P. grandiflorum from Sichuan province,Shangzhou ofShaanxi province andChifeng of Inner Mongolia can significantly increase the phenolsulfonphthalein excretion quantity in mice (P < 0.05). It was concluded thatP. grandilforum was effective for relieving cough and removing sputum. The effect ofP. grandilforum fromChifeng of Inner Mongolia was obviously stronger than that from other areas.
