Objective To evaluate the effect ofJiawei-Danggui-Buxue decoction in the treatment for the patients with hemorrhagic anemia after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods A total of 63 TKA patients with hemorrhagic anemia were included, and were divided into the treatment group (31 patients) and the control group (32 patients). All patients started to take medicine the second day after surgery. The control group took the Ferrous Succinate Tablets and the treatment group took Jiawei-Danggui-Buxue decoction in the following 4 weeks. The Hb and Hct were detected,and the changes of TCM syndrome scores and the total effect rates of anemiawere observed.Results The total effect rate of TCM syndrome scores in the treatment group was 93.54%, which was significantly higher than control group 83.87% (P<0.05); The total effect rate of anemia in the treatment group was 90.32%, which is significantly higher than control group 75.00% (P<0.05). At the fifteenth day after operation,. And at the postoperative 29th day, the levels of Hemoglobin (129.61 ± 13.02 g/Lvs. 113.35 ± 15.46 g/L,t=6.245) and Hematocrit (0.45% ± 0.03 %vs. 0.41% ± 0.04%,t=5.962) in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusions TheJiawei-Danggui-Buxue decoctionimprovethe Hb, HCT and the clinical effect rates of anemia and TCM syndromes for the patients with hemorrhagic anemia after TKA.

Objective:To document the clinical efficacy of supplementing intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate with Baduanjin exercise in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Methods:Forty patients with KOA were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each of 20. Both groups received health education and intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate once a week for 5 consecutive weeks. The observation group additionally underwent Baduanjin exercise 3 times a week for the 5 weeks. Before and after the treatment, knee joint function, pain and surface integrated electromyography (iEMG) values of the affected quadriceps were assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC) Osteoarthritis Index Scale, and a visual analogue scale (VAS).Results:After the treatment the average VAS and WOMAC scores of both groups had decreased significantly, while the average iEMG value of the quadriceps on the affected side had increased significantly. The average VAS and WOMAC scores of the observation group were significantly lower than the control group′s averages after the treatment, while the average iEMG value of the quadriceps on the affected side was significantly higher.Conclusion:Combining Baduanjin exercise with sodium hyaluronate joint injection in the treatment of KOA has a synergistic effect which can better relieve knee pain, improve knee functioning, and delay the progression of KOA. The combined treatment is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective: To analyze the effect of diary psychological guidance on negative emotion and self-efficacy in patients with duodenal ulcer. Methods: From August 2016 to September 2018, 88 patients with duodenal bulbar ulcer admitted to Harrison International Peace Hospital were divided into study group and control group by random grouping method, 44 cases in each group. The control group was given traditional intervention, while the study group was given diary psychological guidance on the basis of the control group. Both groups were assessed by SAS and SDS, Pittsburgh Sleep Scale, SF-36 Quality of Life Scale and Self-efficacy Scale before and after intervention at the end of the second week. Results: After intervention, SAS and SDS of the study group were (51.3±2.0), (52.4±1.9) respectively, while those of the control group were (58.5±2.8), (59.3±3.1). There were significant differences between the two groups (t=15.278, 13.211, P < 0.05). The Pittsburgh sleep quality score, self-efficacy score and quality of life score in the study group were higher than those in the control group (t=7.892-24.031, all P<0.05). Conclusion The intervention of diary psychological guidance can improve the negative emotions such as anxiety and depression, and improve the self-efficacy of patients with duodenal ulcer.

The current document is based on a consensus reached by a panel of experts from the Chinese Society of Allergy and the Chinese Society of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, Rhinology Group. Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) affects approximately 8% of Chinese adults. The inflammatory and remodeling mechanisms of CRS in the Chinese population differ from those observed in the populations of European descent. Recently, precision medicine has been used to treat inflammation by targeting key biomarkers that are involved in the process. However, there are no CRS guidelines or a consensus available from China that can be shared with the international academia. The guidelines presented in this paper cover the epidemiology, economic burden, genetics and epigenetics, mechanisms, phenotypes and endotypes, diagnosis and differential diagnosis, management, and the current status of CRS in China. These guidelines—with a focus on China—will improve the abilities of clinical and medical staff during the treatment of CRS. Additionally, they will help international agencies in improving the verification of CRS endotypes, mapping of eosinophilic shifts, the identification of suitable biomarkers for endotyping, and predicting responses to therapies. In conclusion, these guidelines will help select therapies, such as pharmacotherapy, surgical approaches and innovative biotherapeutics, which are tailored to each of the individual CRS endotypes.
