Objective To evaluate the effect of Xuefu-Zhuyu decoction combined with interactive acupuncture and ibuprofen sustained-release capsule in the treatment of acute lumbar sprain. Methods A total of 102 patients with acute lumbar sprain were randomly divided into two groups, 51 in each group.The control group received ibuprofen sustained-release capsules orally. The study group was treated with Xuefu-Zhuyu decoction combined with interactive acupuncture on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. The degree of low back pain was assessed by VAS and the improvement of lumbar function was assessed by modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores (M-JOA). The Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI) was used to evaluate the degree of lumbar dysfunction. The serum hs-CRP, IL-6, IL-10 and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) level was detected by ELISA. The clinical efficacy was evaluated. Results The total effective rate was 80.4% (41/51) in the study group and 62.8% (32/51) in the control group. There was significant difference between the two groups (χ2=3.903, P=0.048). After treatment, the VAS (1.85 ± 0.40 vs. 4.06 ± 0.67, t=20.226), M-JOA (4.41 ± 1.35 vs. 11.18 ± 2.25, t=18.426), and ODI (9.66 ± 3.34 vs. 16.37 ± 3.64, t=9.700) in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.01). The serum level of hs-CRP, IL-6, IL-10 and PGE2 in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group after treatment (t were 6.694, 8.416, 22.110 and 12.137, respectively, all P s<0.01). Conclusions The Xuefu-Zhuyu decoction combined with interactive acupuncture and ibuprofen sustained-release capsule can improve the degree of lumbago and lumbar dysfunction in patients with acute lumbar sprain, reduce the level of serum inflammatory cytokines, and improve the clinical efficacy.

Objective To investigate the correlation between type H hypertension and the development of coronary atherosclerosis.Methods From January 2015 to December 2016,three hundred and sixty patients with essential hypertension complicated with coronary atherosclerosis were treated in First Hospital of Shijiazhuang were selected,according to the level of serum homocysteine (Hcy),the patients were divided into the observation group (n =197 cases,Hcy ≥ 10 μ mol/L) and the control group (n =163 cases,Hcy＜10 μmol/L),all patients underwent coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound.Results The cross-sectional area of extravascular elastic membrane (EEMCSA),plaque area (PA) and plaque burden(PB) of the observed group were (15.10±0.91) mm2,(8.80±0.99) mm2 and (62.03±3.20)％,wrere obviously higher than thoseat of the control group((13.72±0.96) mm2、(7.92±0.89) mm2、(56.87 ±3.37) ％),and the difference was statistically significant (t =14.079,、8.864,and 14.983,P＜0.05),and the minimum lumen cross section area (MLA) was (5.40 ±0.64) mm2,were obviously lower than that of the control group ((5.89 ± 0.52) mm2),and the difference was statistically significant (t =-7.937,P＜0.05);The Gensini score of the coronary artery in the observation group was (67.64± 13.19) points,which was significantly higher than that in the control group ((55.34± 12.20) points),and the difference was statistically significant (t =9.190,P＜0.05);the Serum Hcy were positively correlated with PA,PB and Gensini scores in the observation group (r =0.873,0.732and 0.856,P ＜ 0.05),which was negatively correlated with MLA (r =-0.773,P＜0.05).Conclusion There is a certain correlation between the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and the level of serum Hcy in patients with type H hypertension,which is worthy of further study.
