Objective To explore the medication regularity of prescriptions in Universal Relief:Cough Medicine in that to provide worthy reference for clinical treatment of cough.Methods The prescriptions in Universal Relief:Cough Medicine was collected and then established the database using Excel 2016 softwore,and carried out medication frequency analysis.SPSS Modeler 18.0 and Lantern 5.0 were used to perform association rules analysis and latent structure model analysis to explore medication rules of prescriptions in Universal Relief:Cough Medicine.Results 607 prescriptions were collected,involving 335 traditional Chinese medicines.A total of medication frequency is 3941,The most frequently used TCMs were ganca(glycyrrhizae radixet rhizoma)and shengjiang(zinglberis rhizoma recens)and kuxingren(armeniaeae semen amarum).The main efficacy of the medicine is to dissipate phlegm,relieve cough,relieve asthma,and replenish deficiency,and warm in nature,spicy,bitter,and sweet in taste and lung and spleen in meridian.14 strongly correlated material rules were sorted out by association rule analysis such as banxia(pinelliae rhizoma)+gancao(glycyrrhizae radixet rhizoma)→shengjiang(zinglberis rhizoma recens)、banxia(pinelliae rhizoma)→shengjiang(zinglberis rhizoma recens)and mahuang(ephedrae herba)+gancao(glycyrrhizae radixet rhizoma)→kuxingren(armeniaeae semen amarum).12 variables were obtained by latent structure model analysis,and according to professional knowledge inference,3 integrated cluster models and 1 single cluster and 4 core prescriptions were obtained.It was inferred that the common syndromes of Universal Relief:Cough Medicine were cold drink stoping in the lung,qi deficiency external phlegm dampness inside,phlegm heat blocking lung,and lung deficiency prolonged cough.Conclusion The medication rules of prescriptions in Universal Relief:Cough Medicine is mainly benefiting qi and resolving phlegm,cure both the symptoms and the disease,and in different situations combine with different treatment methods,such as warming the lung and resolving phlegm,clearing heat and resolving phlegm,tonifying qi and resolving external symptoms,and astringent lung qi.

Objective To explore the relation of gamma knife radiation of different doses with trigeminal nerve radiation damage by investigating the pathologic changes of trigeminal nerve roots after different doses of gamma knife radiation.Methods Fifteen New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 60 Gy radiation group,80 Gy radiation group,100 Gy radiation group,120 Gy radiation group and control group (n=3).Bilateral trigeminal nerves of all New Zealand rabbits,excepted for the control group,were irradiated;and a 4-mm isocenter was placed at trigeminal nerver root entry zone.All New Zealand rabbits for pathological observation were sacrificed after six months.The roots were examined by light microscopy,immunohistochemistry,and electron microscopy.Integrated optical density of the myelin staining and immunohistochemistry staining results of the four groups were examined by Image-pro plus 6.0 image processing system,and analyzed using method of statistics.Results Pathological observation showed the result of 60 Gy group after irradiation did not differ significantly as compared with the result of control group;in 80 Gy group,there was part nerve fiber fragmentation and degeneration,and demyelination;in 100 Gy group,there was nerve fiber fragmentation,degeneration and demyelination,and part of nervous necrosis;in 120 Gy group,there was almost all nerve fiberdissolution,disappearance and demyelination,and most of nervous necrosis.The integrated optical density of the myelin staining and immunohistochemistry staining results of 60 Gy group did not differ significantly as compared with that of the control group (P>0.05);the results of 80 Gy,100 Gy and 120 Gy group differed significantly as compared with that of control group (P<0.05) and decreased following the increase of irradiation doses.Conclusions The histopathological changes of the trigeminal nerve irradiated by gamma knife have significant correlation with irradiation doses.The result of 60 Gy group after irradiation does not change significantly;the radiation injury of 80 Gy-120 Gy group aggravates with the increase of irradiation doses;irradiation of high dose (100 Gy and 120 Gy) can cause nervous necrosis.

Objective To explore the relation of gamma knife radiation doses and changes of trigeminal nerves after gamma knife irradiation by studying the changes of trigeminal somatosensory evoked potentials (TSEP) characteristics oftrigeminal nerve roots irradiated by gamma knife in normal animals.Methods Fifteen New Zealand rabbits were divided into 60 Gy irradiation group,80 Gy irradiation group,100 Gy irradiation group,120 Gy irradiation group and control group in accordance with random number table (n=3).The first 4 groups used Gamma Plan 5.34 planning system to design the radiation targets and radiation doses.The target was placed at trigeminal nerve root entry zone,bilateral irradiation was performed,and the central dose was divided into 60 Gy,80 Gy,100 Gy and 120 Gy.The bilateral TSEP was monitored before and 6 months after irradiation.The monitoring data were recorded and statistical analysis was performed.Results P1,N1,P2 wave latencies,P1-N1,N1-P2 interpeak latencies and amplitudes in the 60 Gy irradiation group after irradiation showed no significant differences as compared with those in the control group (P>0.05);P1,N1,P2 wave latencies,P1-N1,N1-P2 interpeak latencies and amplitudes in the 80 Gy irradiation group,100 Gy irradiation group,and 120 Gy irradiation group after irradiation showed significant differences as compared with those in the control group (P<0.05),and these changes increase with increase of doses.Conclusion The changes of TSEP,which increase with increase of doses,are closely related to the doses of gamma knife irradiation,of which 80 Gy is the lowest dose to produce changes.
