Objective To compare the efficacy of intralesional glucocorticoid injection with a needle-free injector versus an ordinary injector for the treatment of keloid. Methods A total of 60 patients with keloid were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups by using a random number table to receive intralesional injection of compound betamethasone with a needle-free injector(n=31)or an ordinary injector(n=29). The injection was given at a dose of 0.2 ml/cm3 once every 3 weeks for 3 sessions. Parameters for therapeutic efficacy were assessed, adverse reactions were recorded, and clinical pictures were taken before and after each treatment. Statistical analysis was carried out by the Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test with the SPSS 19.0 software. Results Compared with the ordinary injector group, the needle-free injector group showed significantly different injection time during the first and second treatment (U=299.000, 773.500, respectively, both P=0.000), as well as duration of pain after the first injection(U=730.000, P=0.003). After three sessions of treatment, there was a significant difference in the volume, height, hardness of keloid, scores for pain, itching and appearance, and number of injection points between the needle-free injector group and ordinary injector group (U=295.000, 336.500, 264.000, 464.000, 451.500, 308.000, 233.500, P=0.001, 0.007, 0.000, 0.041, 0.043, 0.003, 0.001, respectively). No significant differences were observed in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(all P>0.05). Moreover, the interval for lesion recurrence was significantly shorter in the needle-free injector group(11.8 days, 95%CI:10.96-12.6 days)than in the ordinary injector group(21.2 days, 95%CI:13.96-28.45 days). Conclusion Compared with the ordinary injector, the needle-free injector shows better efficiency for the treatment of keloid with decreased difficulty in injection and improved compliance in patients.

Objective To observe the protecting effect of Tongluoningxinfang decoction on human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Methods To cultivate endothelial cells and prepare serum with Tongluoningxinfang decoction and Fufangdanshenwan,cells were randomly separated into 8 groups,normal group,model group,treat group (high dose,medium dose,low dose),control group (high dose,medium dose,low dose). Except normal group,add 30% H2O2 to the other groups,and make endothelial cells damaged models. Add serum with drugs to treat groups and control groups,and test NO,ET-1 and P-selection (Ps) respectively. Result NO of model group was significantly lower than normal group,all treat groups and all control groups. ET-1 of model group was significantly higher than all treat groups and all control groups. Ps of model group was significantly higher than normal group,treat groups (smedium dose,low dose) and control groups (high dose,medium dose). It had no significant difference compared with model group,treat group (high dose) and control group (low dose). Conclusion Tongluoningxinfang decoction has the same influence as Fufangdanshenwan on secretion of vein endothelial cells. Tongluoningxinfang decoction and Fufangdanshenwan all can prevent vein endothelial cells from damage induced by H2O2.
