Objective: To observe the clinical effect of auricular point sticking therapy for cardiac syndrome X (CSX) in women. Methods: A total of 64 patients were randomized into two groups by the random number table, with 32 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received conventional treatment for angina, while patients in the treatment group received auricular point sticking therapy on the basis of conventional treatment. After 8 weeks of treatment, the levels of serum estradiol (E2), nitric oxide (NO) and endothelium-1 (ET-1) were compared to evaluate the therapeutic effect. Results: After 8 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate and markedly effective rate in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the between-group comparisons showed statistical significance (both P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of chest pain and tightness in the control group dropped significantly, and the intra-group comparisons showed statistical significance (both P<0.05); the scores of chest pain and tightness, palpitations, weakness and shortness of breath in the treatment group dropped significantly, and the intra-group comparisons showed statistical significance (all P<0.05); there were significant inter-group differences in the scores of chest pain and tightness. After treatment, the intra-group comparisons of E2, NO and ET-1 contents in the control group showed no statistical significance (all P>0.05), while the E2, NO and ET-1 contents in the treatment group changed significantly after treatment and were significantly different from those in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Auricular point sticking on the basis of conventional treatment was effective for CSX in women, and is worth clinical application.

Objective: To study the chemical constituents from the whole plant of Goldfussia pentstemonoides. Methods: The compounds were separated and purified by chromatographic methods. The structures were identified by spectroscopic analyses. Results: Ten compounds were isolated from the n-butanol fraction of 95% ethanol extract in the whole plants of G. pentstemonoides and identified as salidroside (1), 1-(α-L-rhamnosyl-(1→6)-O-β-D-glucopyranosyloxy)-3,4,5-trimethoxybenzene (2), isoacteoside (3), isonuomioside A (4), benzyl-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5), lcariside F2 (6), (-)-lyoniresinol 3α-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (7), (+)-isolariciresinol-9-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (8), decaffeoylverbascoside (9), and dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol 4-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (10). Conclusion: All compounds are isolated from G. pentstemonoides for the first time.
