Objective To observe the curative effect of modified Yiweitang on anorexia of the Spleen and Stomach Yin deficient type. Methods90 patients with anorexia belonging to spleen yin deficiency type were randomized in to 2 groups, by 1: 1 ratio. According to the age of children, appropriate dose of modified Yiwei decoction (treatment group) and Erbao Granule (control group), 3 times/d, for 4 weeks were given to the children. Clinical efficacy of the treatment group was observed before and after the treatment and compared with the control group. Results(①) symptom scores: Vomiting (0.061±0.024), sweating (0.140±0.004), stool (0.024±0.011), urine (0.026±0.010) in treatment group after treatment, showing statistical significance (P<0.05) with the control group. ② disease treatment: The total effective rate was 93.3% and 91.1% in the treatment group and the control group, the difference was not statistically significant (X2=0.886, P>0.05). ③symptoms treatment: The total effective rate was 95.6% and 66.7% in the treatment group and the control group respectively, the difference was statistically significant (x2=0.625, P<0.05). Conclusion The treatment of modified Yiweitang was better than Erbao Granule in treating children with anorexia belonging to stomach yin deficiency.

Objective To explore the Chinese massage therapy for the treatment of infantile anorexia of spleen and stomach type clinical curative effect.Methods 2 to 6 years old anorexia children treated from September 2010 to September 2012 for general treatment and health care in our hospital were randomly recruited into a Qi deficiency of both spleen and stomach group and a Yin deficiency of both spleen and stomach group with 25 cases in each group.Both groups were treated with chiropractic therapy.On this basis,Qi deficiency of both spleen and stomach group was applied point-massage on Weishu,Pishu,and Zusanli; Yin deficiency of both spleen and stomach group was applied point-massage on Weishu,Ganshu,and Shenshu.Results ① The comparison of disease and syndromes:the total effective rate was 92% (23/25)and 88% (22/25) in Qi deficiency of both spleen and stomach group and Yin deficiency of both spleen and stomach group separately,showing no significant difference (x2=0.886,P>0.05); the total symptoms improving rate was 92%(23/25) and 76%(19/25)in Qi deficiency of both spleen and stomach group and Yin deficiency of both spleen and stomach group separately,the difference showing statistically significant (x2=0.625,P<0.05).② Symptom score comparison before and after treatment:The main symptoms score and accompanied symptoms score before and after the treatment were [(18.32±2.42) %,(4.12±0.17) points] and [(16.80±3.77) %,(5.30 ±0.41) points] in the Qi deficiency group and [(18.18±2.10),(4.45±0.30) points] and [(19.66 ± 3.62)%,(6.01 ± 1.02) points] in the Yin deficiency group.Both groups showed obvious improvements in the main and accompanied symptom scores after the treatment (P<0.01),but no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion The treatment of anorexia due to deficiency of both spleen and stomch with chiropractic and point-massage was effective.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of patients with heart failure and the safety and efficacy of noninvasive ventilator in patients with heart failure.Methods Sequentially enrolled 65 patients who were diagnosed with decompensated heart failure in Tianjin Chest Hospital Heart Center from October 2016 to October 2017 and who had acute heart failure during hospitalization requiring noninvasive ventilator,were divided into the HF-PEF group (n=19) and HF-REF group (n=46).The clinical data of the two groups and the observation indexes before and after the application of the non-invasive ventilator were compared.Results Comparing the admission data of the two groups,the proportion of patients with hypertension (57.9% vs 21.7%,P=0.005) and LVEF(%) (53.00±4.85 vs 33.07±7.24,P<0.01)were significantly higher in the HF-PEF group than those in the HF-REF group;LVEDD (mm) in the HFPEF group was significantly lower than that in the HF-REF group (50.00±5.23 vs 63.82±8.95,P<0.01).In the two groups of patients with acute left heart failure,blood lactate levels (mmol/L) in the HF-PEF group (4.20±1.06 vs 2.02±0.88,P<0.05) and systolic blood pressure (mmHg) (151.32±43.40 vs 117.90± 19.55,P<0.05) were significantly higher than those in the HF-REF group.After the application of non-invasive ventilator,systolic blood pressure (mmHg) (34.38±9.36 vs 16.94±5.19,P=0.038) and PaCO2 (mmHg)(2.49±0.98 vs-0.06±0.00,P=0.025),and lactic acid (mmol/L) (2.06±0.67 vs 0.04±0.01,P=0.001) were significantly lower in the HF-PEF group than those in the HF-REF group.While the NT-proBNP level (ng/L) (13 064.90±1 963.83 vs 11 687.13±1 028.03,P=0.848) did not decrease significantly,and the time of non-invasive ventilator application (h)was significantly longer than that in the HF-REF group (152.74±10.61 vs 71.03±10.41,P=0.013).Conclusions Hypertension is the main cause of HF-PEF group.The systolic blood pressure and blood lactate level in HF-PEF patients with acute left heart failure are significantly higher than HF-REF patients.Non-invasive ventilator is also safe and effective for the treatment of acute left heart failure in HF-PEF patients,but HF-PEF patients with acute left heart failure have a longer clinical remission time.
