Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture at the three tongue points plus tuina in treating hypersalivation in cerebral palsy.Method Sixty patients with hypersalivation due to cerebral palsy were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, 30 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened predominantly by acupuncture at the three tongue points plus tuina, while the control group was by tuina alone. The clinical efficacies were compared between the two groups.Result The total effective rate was 96.7% in the treatment group versus 83.3% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture at the three tongue points plus tuina is an effective approach in treating hypersalivation in cerebral palsy.

Objective To investigate the related factors of anxiety in patients undergoing liver puncture,so as to provide better clinical care and psychological intervention for patients to ensure the successful completion of liver puncture. Methods From January 2008 to January 2014,310 cases of patients from the Third People's Hospital of Shenzhen with liver puncture were selected as the research object. The patients' general condition and self rating Anxiety Scale were investigated. Results The SAS score of the patients who would undergo liver puncture was(47.25±0.44)points,and the incidence of anxiety symptoms was 91.3%. The results of univariate and multivariate analysis showed that the effect of patients with anxiety before liver biopsy can explain the variation of the size of the corresponding factors:whether accompanied by family members, payment methods,awareness of the disease,ear of liver failure,the education level,and gender(β' =0.617, 0.352,0.114,0.102,0.082、0.043;P < 0.05). Conclusions Before the liver puncture,the patients show a state of anxiety. The main factors affecting the anxiety status are whether to have family members,to pay for the disease,to understand the disease,to worry about the failure of liver failure,the degree of education and gender medical staff should provide targeted nursing intervention for patients to alleviate anxiety and promote rehabilitation on the basis of the above factors and the relevant circumstances.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of neuro-endoscopic evacuation and microsurgery via keyhole approach in early spontaneous supertentorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods:A prospective multi-center randomized controlled trial was performed; 114 patients with spontaneous supertentorial ICH (time from onset to surgery<6 h) admitted to Departments of Neurosurgery, Shunde Hospital of Southern Medical University, Jiangmen Central Hospital, Affiliated Hospital of School of Medicine of Yanbian University from January 2019 to December 2021 and met the surgical indications were selected. They were divided into endoscopic group (evacuation of intracerebral hematoma under neuroendoscope, n=71) and microscopic group (microsurgery of intracerebral hematoma via keyhole approach, n=43) according to different surgical methods. After 1:1 propensity score matching of the general data, surgical time, hematoma clearance rate, early postoperative re-bleeding rate, Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores 7 d after surgery, activity of daily living (ADL) scores 6 months after surgery, mortality, and surgery-related complications of 66 patients (33 from each group after matching) were compared. Results:The difference of surgical time between endoscopic group and microscopic group was statistically significant (125[102, 157] mins vs. 175[125, 260] mins, P<0.05). However, hematoma clearance rate (93.00%[80.88%, 96.52%] vs. 93.31%[88.15%, 96.03%]), early postoperative re-bleeding rate (15.2% vs. 9.1%), GCS scores 7 d after surgery (13[10, 15] vs. 12[8, 14]), ADL scores 6 months after surgery (65[45, 85] vs. 55[0, 85]), mortality rate (18.2% vs. 21.2%) and incidences of postoperative intracranial infection and acquired pulmonary infection were not statistically significant between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Comparing with microsurgery via keyhole approach, neuro-endoscopy could shorten the surgical time, but not improve the prognosis or safety in early spontaneous supertentorial ICH patients.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate clinical efficacy and safety of Biyuan tongqiao granules combined with Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS: Retrieved from Embase, PubMed, the Cochrane library, CNKI, CBM, VIP and Wanfang database, RCTs about Biyuan tongqiao granules combined with Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray (trial group) versus Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray (control group) in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis were collected during database establishment to Dec. 8th, 2018. After data extraction and quality evaluation with Cochrane bias risk evaluation tool 5.1.0, Meta-analysis was performed for total response rate, nasal mucociliary transmission rate (MTR), the levels of IL-5 and IL-8 in nasal secretion, SNOT-20 score, VAS score, Lund-Mackey nasal sinus CT score, the incidence of ADR (nausea, rash) by using Rev Man 5.3 software. TSA 0.9 software was used for trial sequential analysis(TSA). RESULTS: A total of 9 RCTs were included, involving 998 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed that total clinical response rate [RR=1.20,95%CI(1.14,1.26),P<0.001] of trial group was significantly higher than that of control group; MTR [MD=-231.74,95%CI(-291.89,-171.58),P<0.001], IL-5 [MD=-0.86,95%CI(-1.37, -0.35),P<0.001] and IL-8 [MD=-0.50,95%CI(-0.76, -0.25),P<0.001] levels of trial group were significantly lower than those of control group. SNOT-20 score, VAS score and Lund-Mackey nasal sinus CT score of trial group were all lower than those of control group, with statistical significance (P<0.001). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of nausea [RR=0.57,95%CI(0.17,1.92),P=0.37] or rash [RR=2.25,95%CI(0.70,7.20),P=0.17] between 2 groups. TSA analysis showed that the evidence for therapeutic efficacy of Biyuan tongqiao granules combined with Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis was reliable. CONCLUSIONS: Biyuan tongqiao granules combined with Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray is better than Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray alone in improving total response rate of Biyuan tongqiao granules combined with Triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis, reducing MTR, the levels of IL-5 and IL-8, and improving SNOT-20 score, VAS score and Lund-Mackey nasal sinus CT score, without increasing the incidence of nausea, rash.

The traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in pediatric care has a long history,proven efficacy,and distinctive characteristics.The China Association of Chinese Medicine has organized a series of youth salons to discuss the clinical advantages of treating diseases.Experts at this seminar proposed that the superior disease categories in pediatric TCM are significant for showcasing the unique strengths and advantages of TCM in the treatment of pediatric diseases,enhancing diagnostic and treatment levels,inheriting TCM knowledge,promoting the integration of TCM and Western medicine,and meeting patients' needs.The strengths of pediatric TCM are summed up as "having what others do not,excelling at what others have,being special in what others excel at,and ensuring safety in what others specialize in." The scope of superiority in pediatric TCM covers multiple systems,including respiratory,digestive,endocrine,psychological,and dermatological systems.This article summarized the advantages of TCM in treating 13 diseases discussed in the salon,such as upper respiratory tract infections,coughs,pneumonia,allergic rhinitis,bronchial asthma,atopic dermatitis,functional dyspepsia,functional constipation,enuresis,marginal short stature,simple obesity,attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,and tic disorders.The overall advantages were reflected in three aspects:First,the holistic concept and treatment based on syndrome differentiation in TCM highlight the advantage of treating the root causes of diseases,making the treatment methodical and precise.Second,most traditional Chinese herbs are natural and have strong safety profiles.Third,TCM treatment methods are abundant,especially the external treatment methods,which are widely used in pediatrics,highly accepted by parents,and have definite efficacy,as well as good safety and compliance.
