Objective To assess the correlation between inflammation,specific immune response and coronary heart disease(CHD). Methods Thirty healthy cases passed the health examination were taken as the control group. Eighty cases who were diagnosised into CHD,affirmed by coronary angiography,were divided into three groups: acute myocardial infarction (AMI) group(26 cases),unstable angina pectoris (UP) group (24 cases),and stable angina pectoris (SP) group(30 cases). All the cases were tested on the concentrations of C-reactive protein(CRP),IgA,IgG,IgM in serum. Results The serum indices of CRP,IgG,IgA in AMI group and UP group were significantly difference than those in the control group (P0.05). Conclusion The correlation between inflammation and immune system activation are closely associated with CHD.

As an important complementary form of decoction pieces of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), TCM dispensing granules has the advantages of being free of decoction, easy to take, easy to carry and easy to be dispensed, which greatly improves the capacity of emergency services of TCM and is more in line with the needs of modern society. With the end of the pilot project of TCM dispensing granules, the market has been fully liberalized, the competition has been intensified, and it is in the transition period of switching between the new standard and the old one, and there are some problems such as the shortage of varieties, the change of specifications and the difference of quality, and the production enterprises are facing new opportunities and challenges. Based on this, the authors intend to systematically sort out the policies and regulations, enterprise layout and standard formulation since the pilot of TCM dispensing granules. In view of the problems in the post-pilot stage and from the perspective of survival and development of enterprises, it is suggested that enterprises should establish a quality control system for the whole industry chain of TCM dispensing granules to reduce process costs and increase enterprise competitiveness, further increase the investment in scientific research, overcome the key technical problems of difficult varieties, actively and orderly promote the research of national standards, in order to ensure the integrity of clinical formula varieties, and establish and improve the efficacy evaluation mechanism of TCM dispensing granules, build a consistency evaluation system between TCM dispensing granules and decoction pieces. Government departments should strengthen the guidance, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of scientific research institutions, enterprises and hospitals, and explore the establishment of "government-industry-study-research-application" mode to promote the development of TCM dispensing granule industry.
