OBJECTIVETo observe the efficacy difference in the treatment of breast hyperplasia between the combined therapy of auricular point sticking and Xiaopijian and the simple application of Xiaopijian.
METHODSNinety-one patients were randomized into an observation group (46 cases) and a control group (45 cases). In the observation group, the sticking therapy on the auricular points was applied in combination with the oral medication of Chinese herbal medicine, Xiaopijian. Auricular points included Ruxian, Neifenmi (CO18), Luanchan, Shenmen (TF4), Gan (CO2), Pi (CO13). The auricular point sticking therapy was applied once a week on the auricular points of one side alternatively. Xiaopijian was the self-prepared decoction. The main ingredients are radix bupleuri Bupleurum chinense, spica prunellae prunella vulgaris and radix peoniae alba Paeonia lactiflora, 30 mL each time, three times a day. In the control group, Xiaopijian was simply prescribed for oral administration, 30 mL each time, 3 times a day. The treatment was discontinued during menstruation in the two groups. The menstrual cycle of one month made one session of treatment. The treatments for 3 sessions were observed. The scores of symptoms and physical signs, including the degree of breast pain, hardness and size of breast masses as well as the scores of general and supplementary symptoms were compared before and after treatment in the patients of the two groups. The clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups.
RESULTSAfter treatment, the scores of symptoms and physical signs were reduced apparently as compared with those before treatment in the patients of the two groups (both P<0. 05). The score reduction in the observation group was much more than that in the control group (11.02±1. 78 vs 9.82±1. 53, P<0. 05). The total effective rate was 95.7% (44/46) in the observation group, higher apparently than 80. 0% (36/45, P<0. 05).
CONCLUSIONThe combined therapy of auricular point sticking and Xiaopijian achieves the superior efficacy on breast hyperplasia as compared with the simple application of Xiaopijian.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Jianpi Huoxue Decoction, a compound Chinese herbal medicine, on Kupffer cell signal pathway activation in rats with liver injury induced by Lieber-Decarli liquid diet and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS: SD rats were divided into normal, control liquid diet, ethanol liquid diet and ethanol liquid diet plus Jianpi Huoxue Decoction group. Rats were administrated with Jianpi Huoxue Decoction or distilled water via gastrogavage for 4 weeks after administration with ethanol or control liquid diet for 2 weeks respectively. After that, rats in each group were stimulated with LPS via gastrogavage for 3.5 h and harvested. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in serum and triglyceride (TG) in liver were analyzed. Pathological changes in liver tissues were observed in HE staining section. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-alpha) in portal vein plasma was assayed by ELISA. The protein expressions of CD68, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), phosphorylation-I kappa B (P-I kappa B) and TNF-alpha in liver were evaluated with Western-blotting. RESULTS: After the treatment with Jianpi Huoxue Decoction, the pathologic changes in liver tissue were lightened, levels of ALT in serum, TG in liver and TNF-alpha in portal vein plasma were decreased, and the protein expressions of CD68, TLR4, P-IkappaB and TNF-alpha in liver were reduced. CONCLUSION: Jianpi Huoxue Decoction can inhibit Kupffer cell signal pathway activation in rats with liver injury induced by Lieber-Decarli liquid diet and LPS.
