Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of Toutongning capsule combined with nimodipine in the treatment of 76 patients with primary vascular headache.Methods 76 patients with primary vascular headache were selected as the research subjects.According to the different surgery,the patients were randomly divided into control group (n =38) and observation group (n =38).The control group was given compound Danshen injection,while the observation group was given Toutongning capsule combined with nimodipine.The efficacy,the peak systolic velocity(Vs) and pulsatility index(PI) of each vessel,the time of stopping pain,recurrence rate and adverse reaction were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate of the observation group was 94.74%,which was higher than 84.21% of the control group,the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.785,P < 0.05).The MCA,ACA,BA,VA value of Vs and PI,the time of stopping pain and recurrence rate in the observation group were better than those in the control group (t =5.385,6.834,7.407,6.651,4.032,5.716,6.203,5.016,4.785,x2 =5.473,all P < 0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups in PCA value of Vs and PI and adverse reaction(t =0.283,0.037,x2 =0.314,all P < 0.05).Conclusion Toutongning capsule combined with nimodipine in the treatment of primary vascular headache has high application value and significant effect,and it can promote cerebral circulation,blood flow,time of stopping pain and recurrence rate,so it is worthy of clinical popularization and application.
2.Progress in toxicology of heavy metals in traditional Chinese medicine
Chinese Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology 2016;30(12):1359-1368
With the increasing trade of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),the issue of excessive levels of toxic heavy metals metals in TCM has raised worldwide concerns. Some countries and re?gions have set strict limits on the heavy in TCM. There are currently no uniform limits on heavy metals, partly for lack of a good understanding of heavy metals in TCM. The toxicity of heavy metals varies with their chemical forms so that it is not rational to evaluate safety in terms of total contents. Cinnabar and realgar are widely used TCM containing heavy metals in clinical practice. Because of the potential toxicity of heavy metals such as mercury or arsenic,and the related adverse reactions reported occa?sionally,the safety of cinnabar,realgar and their preparations has also attracted public attention. In the present paper,the progress in toxicological studies on cinnabar,realgar as well as commonly used preparations was reviewed while priorities of future research were proposed.
