OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on chronic pelvic pain in patients with sequelae of pelvic inflammatory disease. METHODS: A total of 144 patients with chronic pelvic pain were randomly divided into an observation group (72 cases, 10 cases dropped off) and a control group (72 cases, 9 cases dropped off). The patients in the control group were treated with ibuprofen sustained-release capsules 10 days before menstruation, 0.3 g each time, once a day. On the basis of the treatment of the control group, the patients in the observation group were treated with EA at Guanyuan (CV 4), Shuidao (ST 28), Guilai (ST 29), Shenshu (BL 23) and Ciliao (BL 32), disperse-dense wave, 2 Hz/15 Hz of frequency, once a day. The patients in both groups were treated for 10 days per menstrual cycle for 3 menstrual cycles. The visual analogue scale (VAS) scores of lower abdomen and lumbosacral area, local sign score, quality of life scale score and pain disappearance rate were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. RESULTS: The VAS scores of lower abdomen and lumbosacral area as well as each item score and total score of local signs in the observation group after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment and those in the control group ( CONCLUSION EA can relieve the pain symptoms in patients with chronic pelvic pain and improve their quality of life.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the therapeutic effect between acupuncture combined with ibuprofen sustained-release capsule and simple ibuprofen sustained-release capsule on chronic pelvic pain (CPP) after pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). METHODS: A total of 144 patients were randomized into an observation group (72 cases, 10 cases dropped off) and a control group (72 cases, 9 cases dropped off). Ibuprofen sustained-release capsule was given orally in the control group, one capsule a time. On the basis of the treatment in the control group, acupuncture was applied at Guanyuan (CV 4), Shuidao (ST 28), Guilai (ST 29), Shenshu (BL 23) and Ciliao (BL 32), and Shuidao (ST 28), Guilai (ST 29), Shenshu (BL 23) and Ciliao (BL 32) were connected to electroacupuncture in the observation group. The treatment was given 10 days before menstruation, once a day for 3 menstrual cycles in both groups, and the follow-up was adopted 3 menstrual cycles after treatment. The visual analogue scale (VAS) scores of hypogastrium and lumbosacral region before treatment, after treatment, and at the follow-up, the score of local signs and the score of World Health Organization quality of life questionnaire-brief version (WHOQOL-BREF) before and after treatment were observed in the both groups. RESULTS: After treatment and at the follow-up, the VAS scores of hypogastrium and lumbosacral region were decreased compared before treatment in both groups ( CONCLUSION Acupuncture combined with ibuprofen sustained-release capsule can effectively improve the symptoms, signs and quality of life in patients with CPP after PID, the therapeutic effect is superior to simple ibuprofen sustained-release capsule.

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository in the treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease. Four Chinese databases,namely CNKI,VIP,WanFang and SinoMed,and three English databases Cochrane Library,namely Medline,and ClinicalTrail.gov were systematically and comprehensively retrieved from the establishment of each database to June 2018. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by using the risk assessment tools developed by the Cochrane Collaboration,and RevMan 5. 3 software was used for Meta-analysis. A total of 675 articles were retrieved,and finally 56 studies were included. The total sample size was 6 228,the test group included 3 267 cases,and the control group included 2 961 cases. The overall quality of the included studies was generally low. According to the intervention measures and outcome indicators,the included studies were divided into different subgroups for analysis. The main results of Meta-analysis showed that the recurrence rate of Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository combined with antibiotics was lower than that of antibiotics alone. Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository combined with antibiotics was superior to antibiotics alone in terms of abdominal pain,leucorrhea abnormality relief time,mass absorption time and pain relief time. In terms of safety,Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository combined with antibiotics had a lower incidence of adverse reactions than antibiotics alone. Based on the results of this study,it is indicated that Kangfu Xiaoyan Suppository had a certain effect on the treatment of pelvic inflammatory disease,especially with a lower recurrence rate. The long-term effect is remarkable. No serious adverse reaction was observed. Restricted by the quality of the studies included,the above conclusion need to be further verified in high-quality,largesize,multi-center clinical researches.

To study the correlation between ultra high performance liquid chromatography( UPLC) fingerprint of Smilax china and its anti-pelvic inflammatory effect,and to explore the pharmacodynamic material basis of S. china against pelvic inflammatory disease.UPLC fingerprints of 10 batches of S. china from different habitats were established,and the values of SOD,MDA,TNF-α,and IL-6 in rats with pelvic inflammation were measured. The weight of each single pharmacodynamics index to the total efficacy was determined by analytic hierarchy process,and the contribution of each peak in fingerprints to the each single pharmacodynamics index and total efficacy was analyzed by the grey relational analysis. Then the structures of chemical constituents at the identified peaks were confirmed by comparing with the reference substance. The 27 common characteristic peaks of UPLC fingerprints were all related to the anti-pelvic inflammation effect of S. china,of which 13 peaks were identified as peak 2( 3,5-dihydroxy-2-methylbenzoic acid-3-O-glucoside),peak 3( chlorogenic acid),peak 5( 2,7,4-trihydroxydihydroflavone-5-O-glucoside),peak 6( 7,4-dihydroxydihydroflavonol-5-O-glucoside),peak 7( taxifolin-7-O-glucoside),peak 9( taxifolin),peak 10( polydatin),peak 11( oxyresveratrol),peak 12( astilbin),peak15( resveratrol),peak 16( quercitrin),peak 18( engeletin) and peak 24( kaempferol). The correlation degree of 21 peaks and the total efficacy was greater than 0. 8,and the top 10 ranked by correlation degree were as follows: peak 1,3,7,19,18,17,4,11,16,and 21. The results showed that the anti-pelvic inflammation effect of S. china was achieved by the combined action of pharmacodynamic substances. In order to control the quality of S. china and its prepared slices more effectively,the index components of content detection should be selected reasonably.

Pelvic inflammatory disease(PID) has become one of the leading causes of female infertility, with an increasing incidence in recent years. Modern medicine believes that risk factors of PID will affect the formation of eggs and embryo implantation, especially on the encounter of gametes, fertilization, and transport of fertilized eggs to the uterine cavity. Therapies for infertility due to PID include medication, sonographic hydrotubation, surgery, and assisted reproductive technology. Professor Ma Kun believes that the disease is located in the uterus with appendages with the main pathogenesis of kidney deficiency and blood stasis. Blood stasis is the pathological basis, and kidney deficiency is the fundamental pathogenesis, which exhibits deficiency-excess in complexity. Kidney deficiency will cause blood stasis over time, while blood stasis will aggravate kidney deficiency in turn, making PID-induced infertility refractory. In clinical practice, basic therapies follow the principles of kidney-tonifying and blood-activating, removing blood stasis, dredging collaterals, and coordinating thoroughfare and conception vessels. The oral administration of Chinese medicine combined with enema, external application, and external washing displays better efficacy in improving the pelvic microenvironment and increasing the pregnancy rate and pregnancy success rate in the treatment of PID-induced infertility.
