Objective To investigate the distribution of the obstructive lesion of hepatic vein and inferior cava vein in patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome in Henan Province of China.Methods A total of 231 cases with Budd-Chiari syndrome were diagnosed by combination of three imaging techniques which either included colour Dopple ultrasound,multislice CT and vasography or colour Dopple ultrasound,MR angiography and vasography.All the hepatic veins,accessory hepatic veins and inferior vena cavae were imaged and their obstructions were detected and analysed.Results Out of the 231 patients there were 5 cases(2.2%)with simple obstruction of inferior vena cava with normal hepatic branches.Thirty-three cases(14.3%)had simple hepatic vein obstruction with normal inferior vena cava.The remaining 193(83.5%)cases had vein obstruction both in hepatic vein and inferior vena cava.Conclusion The most frequent form of Budd-Chiari symdrome in Henan province of China is the complex obstruction of inferior vena cava and heptic vein,and simple obstruction of inferior vena cava occurs the least.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of Lingshao-Zaoren granule in the treatment of female overactive bladder. Methods A total of 60 female OAB patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into 2 groups, 30 cases in each group. The control group recieved the Tolterodine Tartrate Sustained Release Tablets and the Lingshao-Zaoren granule placebo, and the treatment group used the Tolterodine Tartrate Sustained Release Tablets and the true Lingshao-Zaoren granule treatment. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. Overactive bladder symptom scale (OABSS) was used to determine the severity of OAB.Results After treatment 14,28 d,OABSS scores of the treatment group(5.3 ± 2.3,1.4 ± 1.2 vs.8.4 ± 2.4,F=137.209),and control group(7.8 ± 1.9,6.8 ± 1.4 vs.8.6 ± 2.6,F=8.927),were significantly lower than the baseline of each group respectively (P<0.01). Besides, OABSS scores of the treatment group after 14 and 28 d were significantly lower than the control group (t=4.668, 15.678, P<0.01). The pain scores (5.9 ± 1.9, 2.7 ± 1.1 vs.9.5 ±2.3,F=108.819)of treatment group at 14 and 28 d were significantly lower than the baseline(P<0.01);and the pain scores of treatment group at 14 and 28 d were significantly lower than the control group (t=6.342, 14.812,P<0.01).The lower abdomen discomfort scores at 14,28 d in treatment group(1.9 ± 1.4,1.1 ± 1.0 vs. 3.3 ±1.1,F=28.762),and control group(2.7 ±1.0,2.4 ±0.8 vs.3.4 ±1.2,F=12.103)were significantly lower than the baseline of each group (P<0.01); and the abdominal discomfort scores of treatment group at 14, 28 d were significantly lower than the control group (t=2.521, 5.041, P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusions The Lingshao-Zaoren granule could decrease OABSS score,pain score,abdominal discomfort symptoms,improve clinical symptoms of the female patients with OAB.

This paper reviews the clinical researches on acupuncture and moxibustion treating female overactivity of bladder (OAB), and finds that acupuncture and moxibustion treating female OAB hastheraputic effect with simplicity, little adverse reaction and could take effect in a short period of time. Electroacupuncture has combined the effects of acupuncture and nerve electrical stimulation treatment, and it takes few acupoints and is easy to operate. The main acupoints of one or more points of Baliao acupoints shows obvious clinical effect, and navel moxibustion method and auriculo-acupuncture can improve the frequency and urgency of urination of OAB. The combination of using acupuncture and moxibustionhas certaineffect, however, due to the complicated procedures and long treatment courses, it’s not used widely in cinic.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Fufang-Xuanju capsule combined with levofloxacin mesylate tablets in the treatment of chronic epididymitis. Methods: A total of 76 patients in the Urology Department of Xiyuan Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences who met the inclusion criteria from December 2016 to February 2019, were divided into treatment group (43 cases) and control group (33 cases). The control group was given levofloxacin mesylate tablets orally. The treatment group was given Fufang-Xuanju capsule based on the control group. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. Chronic epididymitis symptom index (CESI) was used to evaluate the clinical efficacy by pain score and quality of life score. Results: The total effective rate was 83.7% (36/43) in the treatment group and 63.6% (26/33) in the control group. There was statistically significant difference between the two groups (χ²=4.020, P=0.045). Compared with baseline, the pain scores, quality of life scores and total scores of both groups at 2, 4 weeks after treatment were significantly lower (P<0.01). Two weeks after the treatment, the pain scores, quality of life scores and total scores in the treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group (F value were 16.132, 9.134 and 23.681, respectively, all Ps<0.01). And 4 weeks after the treatment, the pain scores, quality of life scores and total scores of the treatment group were significantly lower than that of the control group (F value were 28.741, 74.049, 72.483, respectively, all Ps<0.01). Conclusions Fufang-Xuanju capsule combined with levofloxacin mesylate tablets can alleviate the pain of patients with chronic epididymitis, improve the quality of life and improve the clinical efficacy.
