Objective] To observe the efficacy of acupuncture combined with Chinese herb and conventional treatment for allergic rhinitis. [Method] 272 patients were randomly divided into four groups: Control group, Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) group, Acupuncture group, Acupuncture combined TCM group. Patients in Control group received conventional treatment for allergic rhinitis;based on Control group, acupuncture was added in Acupuncture group; based on Control group, TCM was used in TCM group; patients in Acupuncture combined TCM group received both acupuncture and TCM. After treatment, the efficacy of all these groups was analyzed. [Result] The cure rate and total efficiency of Acupuncture combined TCM group, Acupuncture group and TCM group was significantly increased. Compared with the control groups the differences were statistically significant( P<0.05). Among them the therapeutic effect of acupuncture combined TCM group had the best cure rate. Compared to the differences over the TCM group and acupuncture group, the cure rate and total efficiency were statistically significant( P<0.05). [Conclusion] It's important to combine acupuncture together with TCM to improve the clinical efficacy of allergic rhinitis.

[Summary] Next-generation sequencing is a revolution in the approach of genetic testing. It broadens the insight on the genetic diagnosis and research of monogenetic diabetes,which is represented by neonatal diabetes mellitus and maturity onset diabetes of the young.And it reveals advantages in exploring novel mutations.

Objective To identify Caulis Piperis Kadsurae and its adulterants. Methods Identification of Caulis Piperis Kadsurae and its adulterants was carried out by comparing its characteristic,microscopic,TLC and UV Spectra. Results There were many differences between Caulis Piperis Kadsurae and its adulterants. Conclusion The methods reported in the article could identify Caulis Piperis Kadsureae well..

Objective: To study protective effect of Litchi seed of Experimental Liver Injury in mice. Method:The acute Liver-injured mice model induced by toxicant chemicals on Carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 ) and thioacetamide(TAA). Results: Litchi seed could markedly decrease the activity of mice serum AST caused by CCl 4 and TAA (P

Objective: To explore the safety and efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis therapy with tissue plasminogen activator ( tPA) in aged acute ischemic stroke patients. Methods:The patients treated with intravenous tPA were analyzed and divided into≥80-year group (n=16) and <80-year group (n=79), and 30 hospitalized patients with the age above 80 years without thrombolytic therapy were selected as the control group. The prognosis of the three groups was compared. Results:①The incidence of ICH in the two thrombolysis therapy groups was 13. 9% and 18. 7% in 24h, and that of SICH was 5. 1% and 6. 3% with no significant difference (P>0. 05). ② No significant difference was found in favorable prognosis between the two therapy groups 90 days after thrombolysis (P=0. 771), while very bad prognosis rate was higher in the≥80-year group than in the <80-year group (P<0. 05). ③The≥80 years group had an increased favorable outcome compared with the control group (P<0. 05), while the very bad prognosis rate in the two groups showed no significant difference (P>0. 05). Conclusion:It is safe and effective for old patients to receive IV-tPA throm-bolysis therapy.

Objective To explore the relation among the quality of the Paridis polyphylla and different species and growth conditions, and help to provide scientific foundation for introduction and cultivation of Paridis polyphylla.Methods The samples of Paridis polyphylla were collected by different varieties, different growth years, different harvest seasons and different altitude habitats. The content of saponins in Paridis polyphylla was measured by HPLC method according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2015. The chromatographic column was ACQUITY UPLC? HSS T3 (3.0 mm× 100 mm, 1.8μm), the mobile phase was acetonitrile and water (gradient elution), with flow rate of 0.5 ml/min, detection wavelength was 203 nm and column temperature at 35℃.Results Total saponin content ranged from 1.35% to 3.89% among the varieties studied. The content of each components were listed as:Paris polyphylla Smith(PS) >Paris polyphylla Smith var. yunnanensis(Franch.) Hand.-Mazz. (PY) >Paris polyphylla Smith var. chinensis(Franch.) Hara (PC). From 3 to 10 years old of PC, the longer the growth years made the higher the total saponin content. Furthermore, total saponin content of PC increased gradually with the altitudes rising from 400 to 800 meters. The total saponin content of PY harvesting in spring was much higher than that of other seasons.Conclusions The Results showed the importance for introducing and cultivating of Paridis polyphylla.
