OBJECTIVETo explore the therapeutic effect of diagnosis and treatment program of integrative medicine (IM) on level 2 hypertension in the young and middle-aged patients and their ambulatory blood pressure.
METHODSA randomized, placebo parallel and controlled, multi-center clinical trial was performed. Totally 199 young and middle-aged level 2 hypertension patients were randomly assigned to the treatment group (99 cases) and the control group (100 cases). All received combined hypotensive treatment program by taking Nifedipine Sustained Release Tablet and Hydrochlorothiazide as basic drugs. Patients in the treatment group additionally took Western medicine (WM) combined Jiangyabao serial drugs (0.31 g per tablet, 2 tablets each time, twice daily), while those in the control group additionally took WM combined simulative agents of Jiangyabao serial drugs (0.31 g per tablet, 2 tablets each time, twice daily). The treatment course was 8 weeks for all, and 24-week follow-ups performed. 24 h ambulatory blood pressure and casual blood pressure, and their efficacies were compared between the two groups, and safety assessed as well.
RESULTSCompared with before treatment in the same group, daytime and night casual blood pressure, as well as 24 h ambulatory blood pressure were all obviously improved in the two groups (P < 0.01). Average diastolic and systolic blood pressures at night decreased more in the treatment group than in the control group with statistical difference (P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in total efficacies of daytime casual blood pressure or ambulatory blood pressure (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSIONJiangyabao serial drugs combined WM in treating young and middle-aged level 2 hypertension patients showed obvious effect in improving night blood pressure, especially for night diastolic blood pressure.

While the near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is used to measure the inhomogeneous samples with diffuse reflection mode, the accuracy and robustness of the calibration model is not quite good for the variation of spectrum scattering and absorption coefficient in those samples.Therefore, an establishment strategy of hybrid model based on homogeneous sample and calibration transfer method was proposed to solve the problem of detection inhomogeneous samples by NIRS.This work was focused on the tobacco leaf samples aspect.Three common calibration transfer methods, including Shenk′s patented algorithm (Shenk′s), piecewise direct standardization (PDS) and calibration transfer based on canonical correlation analysis (CTCCA), were used to construct two hybrid models of tobacco powder mixed with cut tobacco and tobacco powder mixed with tobacco flake samples to predict nicotine content in the samples of cut tobacco and tobacco flake.Experimental results showed that the hybrid model of adding some cut tobacco and tobacco flake samples to the powder model would get preferred prediction ability.Root mean square errors of cut tobacco and tobacco flake samples were reduced by 1.39% and 2.73%, respectively.This showed that the hybrid model was help for the improvement of the predicted results and the robustness of model.Moreover, CTCCA got the optimal performance between these three calibration transfer methods.Therefore, the scheme of building a hybrid model by NIRS homogeneous model and calibration transfer method to determinate the heterogeneous samples is feasible, which can accelerate the development of on-line near infrared spectroscopy technology and will provide reference for the share of near infrared spectral model.
