【Objective】 To analyze the situation of free blood use and direct reimbursement of blood expenses in Shiyan city, so as to provide basis for more effective service of free blood use and direct reimbursement of blood expense after blood donation, and recruitment and retain of blood donors. 【Methods】 The data of free blood use from 1999 to 2019 in Shiyan city were collected for statistical analysis. Measurement data were described by mean±SD, and enumeration data were described by rate or construction ratio. Chi-square test was used for comparison of construction ratio or rate of stratified groups. 【Results】 In the past 21 years, free blood use has developed from the overall increasing stage (1999~2014) to the overall stable stage (2014~2019). Free blood use accounted for 3.52%(40 722.11/1 156 307.85)of the blood donation. Among the blood recipients, blood donors themselves accounted for only 18.83%(2 240/11 898), far lower than the proportion of their direct relatives. Since 2013, Shiyan has carried out the direct reimbursement of clinical blood expenses of voluntary blood donors according to the unified requirements of Hubei Province. The direct reimbursement rate over the past 7 years was 76.49%(5 397/7 056), and the proportion of people from other cities who applied for reimbursement was 4.02%(284/7 056). 【Conclusion】 The policy of free blood use and blood expense direct reimbursement has promoted the development of blood donation. It can also be further improved by relaxing the reimbursement scope of free blood use, strengthening publicity, optimizing services, strengthening supervision, using WeChat public service platform to carry out remote free blood, and strengthening national network construction.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Zhuyuwan in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. MethodsIn this study, hyperlipidemia patients treated in the Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) from September 2022 to December 2023 were randomly assigned into a control group and an observation group. Finally, 162 valid cases were included, encompassing 74 cases in the control group and 88 cases in the observation group. The control group was treated with atorvastatin calcium tablets, and the observation group with atorvastatin calcium tablets + Zhuyuwan extract granules. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. The efficacy in terms of blood lipid level recovery, blood lipid levels, TCM syndrome distribution, efficacy in terms of TCM syndrome, and TCM symptom scores were compared between the two groups as well as between before and after treatment. Liver and kidney functions were monitored for safety assessment. ResultsIn terms of blood lipid level recovery, the total response rate in the observation group was 86.36% (76/88) and that in the control group was 86.49% (64/74), with no statistically significant difference between the two groups. After treatment, both groups showed declines in levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (P<0.05) and elevations in the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) (P<0.05). Moreover, the observation group outperformed the control group in recovering the levels of TG, LDL-C, and HDL-C (P<0.05, P<0.01). In terms of TCM syndrome, hyperlipidemia was mostly caused by phlegm turbidity and obstruction. The total response rate in terms of TCM syndrome in the observation group was 87.30% (55/63), which was higher than that (63.46%, 33/52) in the control group (χ2=9.102, P<0.01). After treatment, the scores of total TCM symptoms, primary symptoms, and secondary symptoms decreased in both groups (P<0.05), and the observation group had lower scores than the control group (P<0.01). The observation group was superior to the control group in alleviating obesity, chest tightness, and low food intake (P<0.05). In terms of safety, the level of aminotransferase was slightly elevated in the control group, and no obvious adverse reaction was observed in the observation group, with no statistical significance in the incidence of adverse reactions. ConclusionZhuyuwan combined with atorvastatin can not only recover blood lipid levels and alleviate TCM symptoms but also reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions.
