Objective:To study the clinical efficacy ofYiqi Huoxue Decoction in the treatment of children with spleen and kidney deficiency type nephrotic syndrome.Methods:A total of 80 children with spleen and kidney deficiency type nephrotic syndrome in our hospital from June 2014 to October 2016 were enrolled in this study.The subjects were divided into control group (n=40) and treatment group (n=40) according to the random number table method.The control group was treated with prednisone,and the treatment group was treated with prednisone combined with Yiqi Huoxue Decoction,the two groups were treated for 4 months.The clinical efficacy of the two groups were evaluate.The 24h proteinuria,total cholesterol (TC),plasma albumin (Alb),and renal function parameters including blood urea nitrogen (BUN),serum creatinine (Scr),and serum creatinine clearance (Ccr) of the two groups before and after treatment were compared.Results:The total effective rate of the treatment group was 95.00%,which was significantly higher than 67.50% of the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The 24h proteinuria,TC,BUN and Scr of the two groups after treatment were significantly lower than before treatment,the Alb,Ccr of the two groups were significantly higher than before treatment,and above indexes in treatment group were better than the control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:Yiqi Huoxue Decoction have good clinical efficacy in the treatment of children with spleen and kidney deficiency type nephrotic syndrome,which can obviously improve children renal function,and is worthy of clinical application.

The effects of four natural organic soil amendments on the quality and pesticide residues of Panax notoginseng were investigated through field experiments and the suitable dosage ratio of each soil amendment was selected to provide a new idea for the pollution-free cultivation of P. notoginseng. The four natural organic soil amendments used in this study were Jishibao, Jihuo, Fudujing, and omnipotent nutrients, which were produced by mixed fermentation of aboveground parts of different plants, biological waste residue, and biochar. During the experiments, only four soil amendments were applied to P. notoginseng instead of any pesticides and fertilizers. The experiment was designed as four factors and three levels. There were three dosage gradients(low, medium, and high) for Jishibao(A), Jihuo(B), Fudujing(C), and omnipotent nutrients(D). When the dosage of one soil amendment changed, the do-sage of the other soil amendments remained medium. There were 10 groups in addition to the soil amendment-free group as control(CK). The results showed that the four soil amendments could significantly improve the growth environment of P. notoginseng and increase the seedling survival rate and saponin content of P. notoginseng. The seedling survival rates of the treatment groups increased by 8.24%-30.05% as compared with the control group. Furthermore, the content of pesticide residues in P. notoginseng was too low to be detected, and that of heavy metals in P. notoginseng was far lower than the specified content in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2020). The optimal effect was achieved at medium dosage for all the soil amendments with the highest content of saponins, high seedling survival rate, and significantly reduced heavy metals, such as lead, cadmium, arsenic, and mercury.

The issues of disordering production and non-standard pesticide application are common in the production of Chinese herbal medicines. Aimed to above problems, research groups built the pollution-free and precision cultivation system of medicinal plants. This system mainly included the precise site selection of medicinal plants based on the GIS technology, modern omics-assisted breeding, metagenomics guiding the soil complex improvement, and the precise field management based on rational application of fertilizer and comprehensive control of disease. At present, the production and distribution of medicinal plants were performed in the many poor counties of the whole nation. The breeding platform of resistant varieties was built, and certificates of new and well-bred varieties were received, in the base of genetic backgrounds of the original species of medicinal plants. The disease incidences were declined after application of these resistant varieties. Additionally, chemical pesticide consumption of medicinal plants (such as Panax ginseng, P. notoginseng, Salvia miltiorrhiza, P. quinquefolium, Schisandra chinensis, Platycodon grandiflorum and P. grandiflorus etc.) reduced by 20%-80% based on the genetic testing technologies of plant diseases and insect pests and safety evaluation of pollution-free pesticides. The application of pollution-free and precision cultivation system of Chinese herbal medicines achieve significantly social, economic and ecological benefits.
