1.Discussion on the Treatment of Children with Asthma in Remission Stage from Healthy Qi Deficiency and Pathogenic Factor Excess
Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2016;40(6):503-506
Objective] The treatment of pediatric asthma in remission period is summarized from the positive and negative aspects, in order to provide new ideas and methods for clinical treatment. [Methods] By consulting the related literatures on the traditional Chinese medicine treatment of children with asthma in remission phase, the paper mainly summarized the different physicians' understanding of pathogenesis and approaches to the treatment of pediatric asthma in remission stage. [Results]The treatment of physicians for pediatric asthma in remission phase can be divided into asthenia healthy qi and sthenia pathogenic factor syndrome.The treatment of healthy qi deficiency mainly includes treating lung,spleen,kidney seperately;curing lung-spleen,lung- kidney, spleen-kidney ;treating three viscera meanwhile.The therapy of pathogenic excess contains treating wind,phlegm,stasis respectively;curing phlegm-stasis. [Conclusion]The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine for pediatric asthma has a unique advantage in improving children's physique, reducing the frequency of asthma attacks, and improve children's life quality which has significant clinical effect.

To explore the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of glioma with Brg/Brm-associated factor 53a (BAF53a) expression.
Methods: A total of 121 patients with glioma was divided into a BAF53a high expression group (n=79) and a low expression group (n=42) according to the results of immunohistochemistry. Then the MRI characteristics, including lesion location, number, boundary, maximum diameter, peripheral edema, midline structure shift, homogeneity, cystic necrosis, hemorrhage, strengthening degree, ependymal strengthening, pia mater enhancement, deep white matter invasion and lesion across the midline (total 14 items), were analyzed.
Results: The results showed that there were significance difference in lesion border, lesion edema, enhancement of the lesion, and deep white matter invasion between the 2 groups (all P<0.05).
Conclusion: The MRI characteristics, such as lesion border, lesion edema degree, enhancement degree of the lesion and deep white matter invasion, might be associated with BAF53a expression in gliomas.
