1.Study of combination methods for formula composition of Chinese herbal medicines and their components.
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2009;7(7):601-6
Chinese prescription is composed of Chinese herbal medicines according to "seven compatible relations" and "sovereign, minister, assistant and courier" principles. There are many methods in the research on combination and composition of Chinese herbal medicines. These methods are classified into traditional model and modern model. For the time being, compatibility study of traditional Chinese herbal medicines has developed from traditional model to modern model. The traditional model mainly studies the effects and mechanisms of the whole and split formulae in medical crude drug level, while the modern model mainly studies the effects and mechanisms of Chinese herbal medicine compositions in components combination level. Moreover, quantitative analysis becomes probable by modern model method. Now, setting up of new components combination model and optimal composition methods will not only develop the combination and the composition of Chinese herbal medicines from medicinal crude drug level to components composition level, but also get new formulae which have clear components and effects, and action targets and mechanisms. It will effectively promote the development of Chinese medicine formula.

Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and effectiveness of stent-assisted coil embolization for the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms. Methods The clinical and imaging data of the patients with intracranial wide-necked aneurysm treated with stent-assisted coil embolization were analyzed retrospectively. Results A total of 200 patients with 205 aneurysms were enrolled. The mortality was 1. 5% and the disability rate was 1. 0% at discharge. One hundred seventy-seven patients were followed up for 16-51 months. The modified Rankin Scale scores: 0 in 174 cases, 2 in 2 cases, 4 in 1 case. Eleven patients (5. 5% ) had perioperative complications, including intraoperative bleeding in 3 cases, postoperative bleeding in 3 cases, postoperative cerebral infarction in 2 cases, coil protrusion in 2 cases, and postoperative epileptic seizure in 1 case. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in the proportions of male patients (9. 1% vs. 5. 3% ; χ2 = 4. 42, P = 0. 026), hypertension (54. 5% vs. 23. 3% ; χ2 = 5. 42, P = 0. 03) and stent prior to coil implantation (54. 5% vs. 85. 1% ; χ2 = 3. 54, P =0. 021) between the complication group and the noncomplication group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the pre-stenting was an independent protective factor for surgery-related complications (odds ratio [OR] 0. 208, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0. 055-0. 791; P = 0. 021), and hypertension was an independent risk factor for surgery-related complications (OR 4. 380, 95% CI 1. 170-16. 399; P = 0. 028). The imaging follow-up of 167 aneurysms was obtained, including 26 recurrent aneurysms (15. 6% ). Univariate analysis showed that there was significant difference in the aneurysm site (anterior circulation aneurysms: 73. 1% vs. 89. 1% ; posterior circulation aneurysms: 26. 9% vs. 10. 6% ; χ2 = 5. 09, P = 0. 033) and size (giant aneurysms: 7. 7% vs. 0. 7% ; large artery aneurysm: 65. 4% vs. 29. 1% ; small aneurysms:26. 9% vs. 70. 2% ; χ2 = 20. 77, P < 0. 001) between the recurrence group and the nonrecurrence group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that large aneurysms (OR 6. 057, 95% CI 2. 296-5. 983; P <0. 001), giant aneurysms (OR 25. 260, 95% CI 1. 903- 335. 267; P = 0. 014 ), and posterior circulation aneurysms ( OR 3. 184, 95% CI 1. 028- 9. 857; P = 0. 045 ) were the independent risk factors of postoperative recurrence. Conclusions Stent-assisted coil embolization is one of the effective methods for the treatment of complex wide-neck aneurysms. Hypertension and coils prior to stenting are the independent risk factors for perioperative complications, and larger aneurysm size and aneurysms in the posterior circulation are the independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence.
