Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of Heweishupiyin decoction in the treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD) in elderly patients with liver stagnation and spleen deficiency.Methods:A randomized controlled method was performed in this study, and 70 FD patients were selected from February 2018 to June 2019 in accordance with the inclusion criteria.The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group according to the random digital table method, with 35 cases in each group.The observation group was treated with Heweishupiyin decoction, the control group was given mosapride citrate tablets.The period of treatment was 4 weeks.The changes of total symptom scores, TCM syndrome evaluation, electrogastrogram (EGG) parameters, serum serotonin, and Hamilton depression scale (HAMD) scores before and after treatment were recorded.The statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Heweishupiyin decoction.Results:After treatment, the overall symptom scores in both two groups were decreased.The overall symptom score of the observation group after treatment[(8.03±4.23)points] was lower than that of the control group[(10.36±4.67)points], and the difference was statistically significant( t=2.145, P<0.05). The overall efficacy of TCM symptoms of the observation group was 88.2% (30/35), which was significantly higher than 72.8% (24/35) of the control group ( Z=-2.473, P<0.05). After treatment, the EGG parameters of two groups had different degrees of increase, the main frequency of the observation group after meal[(3.39±0.34)cpm] was higher than that of the control group[(3.18±0.36)cpm], the difference was statistically significant( t=-2.202, P<0.05). The percentage of normal slow wave in the observation group[(68.91±4.79)%] was higher than that in the control group[(66.33±3.00)%], and the difference was statistically significant( t=-2.549, P<0.05). The reaction area of the observation group[(99.09±13.58)μV/s] was higher than that of the control group[(90.27±14.70)μV/s], and the difference was statistically significant( t=-2.390, P<0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the HAMD score of the observation group[(14.94±2.42)points] was lower than that of the control group[(16.94±4.29)points], and the difference was statistically significant( t=2.355, P<0.05). The serum level of serotonin after treatment in the observation group[(110.46±16.69)μmol/L] was higher than that in the control group[(99.04±19.86)μmol/L], the difference was statistically significant( t=-2.551, P<0.05). Conclusion:Heweishupiyin decoction is superior to mosapride citrate tablets in improving the overall symptomatic efficacy and TCM syndrome efficacy of FD patients with liver stagnation and spleen deficiency.Heweishupiyin not only can improve the depression state of FD in the elderly, but also has the effect of improving the gastric electrical rhythm disorder, which may be related to the regulation of serum serotonin levels.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between the course of antibiotics during perioperative period and postoperative infection in pregnant women with human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome(HIV/AIDS) undergoing cesarean section, and to guide the rational use of antibiotics in clinical practice.
METHODS
A total of 53 cesarean section women in the hospital from January 2014 to September 2022 were chosen as research objects. According to the course of antibiotics, the puerperae were divided into two groups. The treatment course of antibiotics in the study group(n=31) was >24 h and ≤48 h, and the control group(n=22) was ≤24 h. The postoperative wound healing, inflammatory indexes, postoperative infection rate, and postoperative hospital stay were observed.
RESULTS
There was no significant difference in postoperative body temperature, white blood cell count, neutrophil ratio, C-reactive protein, postoperative hospital stay, wound healing grade and postoperative infection rate between the study group and the control group.
CONCLUSION
Antibiotics for HIV/AIDS patients during perioperative period of cesarean section for <24 h may play a better role in preventing postoperative infection.
