Objective To explore β-sodium aescinate on vascular endothelial function ( FMD ) , homocysteine ( Hcy ) and hypersensitive C-reactive protein ( hs-CRP) and clinical efficacy in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods 198 acute cerebral infarction patients from March 2013 to April 2015 were randomly divided into observation group (n=100) and control group (n=98).Control group were treated according to the condition of the disease, observation group were treated by β-sodium aescinate base on control group, 20mg was added to 250mL saline for intravenous drip,one times per day.Continuous used 14d for one treatment courses.Compared the change of vascular endothelial function, Hcy and hs-CRP and clinical efficacy.Results The total effective rate of observation group was 90.00%, which was significantly higher than that of 71.42% in control group (χ2 =11.01,P<0.05).Post-treatment the value of FMD significantly increased, Hcy and hs CRP were significantly decreased both in observation group and control group respectively, which the difference had a statistically significant as compared with Pre-treatment (P<0.05);but, the value of FMD was significantly higher, Hcy and hs CRP was significantly lower in observation group than that of control group (P<0.05).Conclusion It has a significant β-sodium aescinate clinical effect in treatment of acute cerebral infarction, and FMD are significantly higher, Hcy and hs-CRP are significantly decrease.

Based on the theory of qi， blood and fluids， and taking into account of the pathogenesis evolution process from constraint to phlegm， stasis and then mass in pulmonary nodules， an attempt has been made to construct a three-dimensional differentiation system for pulmonary nodules from the dimensions of time and space. The temporal progression of the early， middle， and late stages of pulmonary nodules reflects the pathological changes from constraint to phlegm and then stasis in the metabolism disorders of qi， blood and fluid. The spatial structures such as size， density， and morphology of pulmonary nodules reflect the pathological states of the duration， severity， and primary and secondary conditions of qi， blood and fluid metabolism disorders. Based on the temporal progression， the therapeutic principles have been proposed， which are dispelling pathogenic factors and promoting the use of beneficial factors to interrupt the growth momentum in the early stage， removing turbidity and dispersing phlegm to reduce the degree of nodules in the middle stage， and dispersing nodulation and eliminating abnormalities in the late stage. Based on the spatial structures， the suggested therapeutic methods are using wind herbs， employing multiple approaches to treat phlegm， and promoting blood circulation to resolve stasis， so as to provide theoretical reference for the systematic diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary nodules in traditional Chinese medicine.
