Objective To study the repairing effects of nerve growth granule(NGG) on rat common peroneal nerve transection injury.Methods After 50 Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to nerve suture after transaction,they were randomly divided into 5 groups for daily intragastric administration of drugs:NGG high-dose(5.2g/kg),medium-dose(2.6g/kg),low-dose(1.3g/kg) groups,mecobalamin group(positive control) at 625 ?g/kg,control group(control group control).The drug administration lasted for 4 weeks.Footprint test was performed 2-,3-and 4-weeks after surgery to evaluate toe spread function(TSF).Electrophysiology was performed 4 weeks after operation to determine the compound muscle action potential(CMAP) and nerve action potential(NAP).The number of regenerated myelinated nerve fibers,thickness of myelin sheath and cross sectional area of tibial muscle were measured by histomorphology.Results TSF,amplitude and recovery rate of CMAP and NAP,the number of regenerated myelinated nerve fibers,thickness of myelin sheath and section area of tibial muscle were all increased significantly in a dose-dependent manner compared with the control group.Conclusion NGG contributes to axon growth and myelination,and thus promotes peripheral nerve regeneration in rats with functional recovery.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate efficacy of continuous blood purification (CBP) in childhood severe sepsis through the analysis of organ function, inflammatory mediators and prognosis.

METHODForty-seven children with severe sepsis aged 29 days -16 years who were treated in PICU of Shanghai and Zhejiang five hospitals during October 1, 2011 and September 30, 2012 were enrolled; 30 cases treated with CBP were recorded as logged group , 17 cases without CBP as unlogged group. Changes in the cardiovascular, respiratory function, renal function, inflammatory markers, PRISM score III, PCIS and survival were observed and compared between the two groups at baseline (d0), first days (d1), second days (d2), third days (d3), fifth days (d5).

RESULT(1) Cardiovascular function: In d3 and d5, heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were improved as compared to unlogged group (121, 119 vs. 138, 137; 71, 80 mmHg vs. 63, 62 mmHg, P < 0.05), with no statistical significance in arterial blood lactate concentration. (2) Oxygenation index (PaO₂/FiO₂) and arterial oxygen saturation (SaO₂) increased as compared to unlogged group, but did not reach statistical significance. (3) Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) were improved as compared with unlogged group from d1 (P < 0.05). (4) Inflammatory mediators did not show significant differences. (5) Twenty-eight days survival rate: logged group was 70.0%, unlogged group was 52.9%, but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.242).

CONCLUSIONCBP can improve circulatory function, oxygenation, and renal function in children with severe sepsis. No evidence was found that CBP could decrease the level of inflammatory mediators, improve critical score and 28 days survival rate.

Objective To discuss the sleep quality of hospitalized patients with rheumatic diseases and the factors affecting the quality of sleep. Methods With Pittsburgh sleep quality index ( PSQI) questionnaire and the self-designed questionnaire about the factors affecting sleep were used to survey 125 patients with rheumatic disease from November 2013 to October 2014 in a level three class A hospital in Beijing city. Results Rheumatoid disease inpatients PSQI scores between 7 to 12 points had 35 cases, accounted for 28. 0%, more than 12 points having 6 cases, accounted for 4. 8%, PSQI various dimensions of 93 patients with seven hours of sleep time and accounted for 74. 4%, sleep efficiency more than 85% having 115 patients and accounted for 92. 0%, but the poor quality of sleep group with 113 cases and accounted for 90. 4%, sleep time group 101 cases of patients and accounted for 80. 8%, patients with sleep disorders in 120 cases, accounted for 96%, 111 cases of patients with daytime dysfunction, accounted for 88. 8%, and used hypnotic drugs in patients with only 13 cases, accounted for 10. 4%, group of patients with rheumatic disease of the Pittsburgh sleep quality index was higher than normal group (P<0. 01); there was no significant difference in the total score of PSQI and in patients with glucocorticoid (P <0. 05). The percentage of poor sleep quality was in patients with more than sixty years old, not continue to work or study and poor sleep before hospitalization, and sleep quality of patients affected by physical discomfort (P<0. 01);the primary factors affected patients′sleep was psychological factors. Conclusions The hospitalized patients with rheumatoid disease sleep quality are poor, while psychological factors are the main factors affecting sleep and corticosteroids is not absolutely the influencing factors of sleep. The elderly, the length of sleep before good quality patients should attract the attention of nurses. Using your own sleep drugs can improve sleep quality. Evaluation and assessment of patients′sleep quality can find out potential problems.

Objective:To compare the cost-effectiveness of hospitalized Chinese patients undergoing nucleic acid screening strategies for hepatitis B and hepatitis C, immunological screening strategy, and no screening strategy under different willingness to pay (WTP). The results might aid to decision-making for the optimal strategy.Methods:In this study, nucleic acid screening, immunological screening and no screening were used as screening strategies, and China′s GDP in 2021 (80 976 yuan) was used as the threshold of WTP to construct a Markov model. After introducing parameters related to the diagnosis and treatment of hepatitis B and C in inpatients, a cohort population of 100 000 inpatients was simulated by TreeAge Pro 2021 software, the total cost, total health effects, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio and average cost-effectiveness ratio of different screening strategies were calculated, and cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted. Univariate and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were used to assess the impact of parameter uncertainty on the final results.Results:Compared with the non-screening strategy, the incremental total cost of the hepatitis B immunological screening strategy for cohort patients was 11 049 536 yuan, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 24 762 yuan/quality-adjusted life years (QALY), while the total incremental cost of nucleic acid screening was 19 208 059 yuan, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 29 873 yuan/QALY; the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of nucleic acid screening and immunological screening was 45 834 yuan/QALY. Compared with the non-screening strategy, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of hepatitis C immunological screening strategy was 5 731 yuan/QALY, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of nucleic acid screening strategy was 8 722 yuan/QALY, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of nucleic acid screening and immunological screening was 45 591 yuan/QALY. The results of probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that when the cost of nucleic acid testing exceeded 214.53 yuan, it was not cost-effective to perform hepatitis B nucleic acid screening under the WTP as 1 fold GDP. When the cost of nucleic acid testing exceeded 132.18 yuan, it was not cost-effective to conduct hepatitis C screening under the WTP as 1 fold GDP.Conclusions:Nucleic acid screening strategy can achieve more cost-effectiveness and is worthy of vigorous promotion. Compared with no screening, both the nucleic acid and immunological screening strategies are cost-effective, and hepatitis nucleic acid screening is the optimal strategy for hospitalized patients.

The classic formula Zhulingtang, derived from the medical work Treatise on Cold Damage (《伤寒论》) compiled by ZHANG Zhongjing, a medical sage in the Eastern Han Dynasty, has been included in the Catalogue of Ancient Classic Formulas (First Batch) published by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2018. Using the method of textual research, this study systematically reviewed ancient and modern literature to conduct a historical and textual analysis of Zhulingtang, including its origin, composition, dosage, processing, decoction methods, efficacy, and applications. A total of 733 pieces of relevant information related to Zhulingtang were collected, involving 206 ancient Chinese medical texts, with 52 of them providing detailed records of the composition, dosage, processing, and efficacy of Zhulingtang. The results of the analysis showed that Zhulingtang was composed of Polyporus, Poria, Alismatis Rhizoma, Asini Corii Colla, and Talcum. Polyporus and Poria should be used without their peels, Asini Corii Colla should be stir-fried with clam powder, and Talcum should be ground into powder or soaked in water. Based on the conversion of ancient and modern dosages, Polyporus, Poria, Alismatis Rhizoma, and Talcum, 15.63 g for each one, were decocted with 800 mL of water to 400 mL. Then the drug residue was removed, and 15.63 g of Asini Corii Colla was added to the drug juice for melting by heating. The decoction should be taken warm, 140 mL each time, three times a day. Zhulingtang has the effects of promoting diuresis, nourishing yin, and clearing heat, and it is mainly used to treat water-heat combination syndrome, characterized by symptoms such as difficult urination, fever, and thirst. Modern research indicates that Zhulingtang is commonly used to treat diseases such as cirrhotic ascites, chronic glomerulonephritis, nephrotic syndrome, diarrhea, and urinary tract infections. This study provides key information about the famous formula Zhulingtang, which can serve as a reference for further development and research on its application.

Objective To determine the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in cystic lesions of patients with acne vulgaris,and to evaluate the in vitro effect of Propionibacterium acnes (P.acnes) on the production of IL-6 and activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) in the human acute monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1.Methods Real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR was performed to determine the mRNA expression of IL-6 in cystic lesions of 6 patients with acne vulgaris,as well as in skin tissues of 6 healthy persons.Some cultured THP-1 cells were divided into 5 groups to be treated with 2 × 106 CFU/ml,2 × 107 CFU/ml and 2 × 108 CFU/ml heat-killed P.acnes suspensions (P.acnes groups),100 μμtg/L lipopolysaccharide (LPS group) and RPMI 1640 medium (control group) respectively.After 1-,3-and 6-hour treatment,real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR was conducted to determine the mRNA expression of IL-6 in the above groups.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to detect the level of IL-6 in the culture supernatant of cells in the 2 × 108-CFU/ml P.acnes group,LPS group and control group at 24 hours after the treatment.Western blot analysis was conducted to determine the protein expression of p38MAPK and phosphorylated p38MAPK in the 2 × 108-CFU/ml P.acnes group after 15-,30-and 60-minute treatment,as well as in the LPS group after 30-minute treatment and in the control group.Some other THP-1 cells were divided into 3 groups:2 × 108-CFU/ml P.acnes group treated with 2 × 108 CFU/ml P.acnes suspensions,SB203580 (an inhibitor of p38MAPK) group treated with 20 μmol/L SB203580 for 30 minutes followed by the treatment with 2 × 108 CFU/ml P.acnes suspensions,and control group treated with RPMI 1640 medium alone.After 6-hour treatment,the mRNA expression of IL-6 in the above 3 groups was measured by real-time fluorescencebased quantitative PCR.Results The mRNA expression of IL-6 was significantly higher in the cystic lesions of acne vulgaris than in the normal skin tissues (3.680:±:0.790 vs.1.155 ± 0.250,t =3.047,P ＜0.05).Two-way analysis of variance showed that there were significant difference in the mRNA expression of IL-6 among the 2 × 106-CFU/ml,2 × 107-CFU/ml and 2 × 108-CFU/ml p.acnes groups,LPS group and control group (F =532.3,P ＜ 0.001,v =4),and the mRNA expression of IL-6 significantly differed among different time points (F =526.6,P ＜ 0.001,v =2).There were also significant differences in the IL-6 level in the culture supernatant of cells among the 2 × 108-CFU/ml p.acnes group ([1 618.22 ± 32.23] ng/L),LPS group ([3 212.06 ± 353.00] ng/L) and control group ([147.10 ± 0.53] ng/L;v =2,F =102.35,P ＜0.01).After 15-,30-and 60-minute treatment with 2 × 108 CFU/ml P.acnes suspensions,the protein expression of phosphorylated p38MAPK obviously increased.The mRNA expression of IL-6 in THP-1 cells was significantly lower in the SB203580 group than in the 2 × 108-CFU/ml p.acnes group (t =15.91,P =0.004).Conclusions The mRNA expression of IL-6 evidently increases in the cystic lesions of patients with acne vulgaris.P.acnes can activate the signaling molecule p38MAPK in THP-1 cells,and promote the production of IL-6 by THP-1 cells.

Danggui Buxuetang， derived from Clarifying Doubts about Damage from Internal and External Causes （Volume 2）： Treatise on Heat Injury to Stomach Qi（《内外伤辨惑论卷中·暑伤胃气论》） by LI Dongyuan in the Jin and Yuan dynasties， is a classic and famous formula for tonifying qi and generating blood that has been inherited and promoted by successive generations of medical practitioners and has been included in the "Catalogue of Ancient Classical Prescriptions （First Batch）" published by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2018. The paper analyzed the historical origin， composition， dosage， processing， preparation， decocting， and taking methods， efficacy， and application of the classic formula Danggui Buxuetang by consulting ancient and modern literature and combining the key information examination principles of ancient classic prescriptions. A total of 604 pieces of information on relevant ancient literature were collected， including 186 ancient Chinese medical books， of which 40 （five in the Jin and Yuan dynasties， 19 in the Ming Dynasty， and 16 in the Qing Dynasty） had detailed records of composition， processing， and dosage. Danggui Buxuetang is mainly comprised of Astragali Radix and Angelicae Sinensis Radix. According to the ancient and modern dose conversion， there are 37.3-38.1 g of Astragali Radix and 7.5-7.6 g of Angelicae Sinensis Radix in the formula. Astragali Radix is preferably fried with honey and Angelicae Sinensis Radix with wine. Astragali Radix and Angelicae Sinensis Radix are decocted with 600 mL of water to 300 mL， and taken warm before meals. The main effect of this formula are described in ancient books as blood deficiency and fever， with symptoms of muscle fever， dryness and heat， irritability and thirst， red eyes and face， sleeplessness in daytime and night， and surging and feeble pulse which is weak under hard pressing， and it is a famous formula for replenishing qi and generating blood. Modern research shows that Danggui Buxuetang is commonly used in the treatment of various kinds of anemia， diabetic nephropathy， tumors， and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The above research results can provide a reference for the subsequent development and research on the classic formula Danggui Buxuetang.

Yigongsan， derived from QIAN Yi’s Key to Therapeutics of Children’s Diseases in the Song Dynasty， is a classic pediatric prescription that is included in the Catalogue of Ancient Classic Prescriptions （the Second Batch of Pediatrics） released by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2022. This paper verifies and analyzes the historical origin， composition， dosage， processing， decoction method and efficacy of Yigongsan by systematically combing ancient books and modern documents. As a result， Yigongsan is composed of five herbs： Panax ginseng， Poria cocos， Atractylodes macrocephala， Citrus reticulata and Glycyrrhiza uralensis， of which P. cocos should be peeled， A. macrocephala is fried with soil， G. uralensis is roasted with honey while P. ginseng and C. reticulata are raw products. According to the dosage of ancient and modern times， each medicinal herb must be ground into fine powder， 1.6 g for each， added with 300 mL of water， 5 pieces of Zingiber officinale， and 2 Ziziphus jujuba， decocted together to 210 mL， and taken before meals. In ancient books， Yigongsan is used to treat vomiting， diarrhea， spleen and stomach deficiency， chest and abdominal distension， and lack of appetite， etc. Modern research showed that Yigongsan could also be used in the diseases of immune system， respiratory system， blood system， etc.， involving infantile anorexia， asthma， anemia， tumors and so on.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Qiaoqi Formula （翘芪组方） for mild influenza. MethodsA randomized controlled study was designed， recruiting 74 patients with mild influenza， who were randomly divided into trial group and control group. The trial group took Qiaoqi Formula orally， 40ml each time， twice a day； the control group took Lianhua Qingwen Capsules （连花清瘟胶囊） orally， 1.4 g each time， three times a day. Both groups were treated for 3 consecutive days and follow-up for 4 consecutive days after treatment. The time for fever reduction including onset of fever reduction， complete fever reduction time， fever reduction rates at 24， 48 and 72 hours， improvement of influenza symptoms， total traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score， and safety indicators in two groups after treatment were recorded. ResultsSixty-five patients were ultimately included， including 36 in the trial group and 29 in the control group. Onset time of fever reduction in the trial group was （15.49±23.47） h， the complete fever reduction time （21.37±30.06）h， and the 24 h， 48 h， 72 h， fever reduction rate was 77.14%， 88.57%， 91.42% respectively. The above indicators of the control group showed as （17.58±20.38）h， （24.30±21.87）h， 61.29%， 90.32%， 96.77% respectively， with no statistically significant differences （P＞0.05）. On the 7th day after treatment， the total score of TCM syndromes in trial group and control group decreased compared to those before treatment （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in the cure rate， significant effective rate， effective rate， and total effective rate of TCM syndromes between groups （P＞0.05）. On the 4th day， the lymphocyte ratio of patients in the control group was higher than before treatment， while alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， urea， and creatinine of both groups before and after treatment were within the normal range. The main adverse reactions in both groups were mild headache and dizziness， and no serious adverse reactions observed. ConclusionThe therapeutic effect of Qiaoqi Formula in treating mild influenza is equivalent to Lianhua Qingwen Capsules， which can shorten the fever reduction time， improve clinical symptoms， and no adverse events observed during the study.
