OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of methotrexate with different methods of administrations com-bined with hysteroscopy in the treatment of scar pregnancy(CSP). METHODS:Data of 56 CSP patients were retrospectively ana-lyzed and divided into group A(26 cases)and group B(30 cases)by different methods of administrations. The fluid in group A was injected methotrexate 50 mg/m2 into the capsule,once a week. After 1 week,if the β-HCG was decreased less than or equal to 50%,the patient was additionally injected methotrexate;and if the β-HCG was decreased more than 50%,no more methotrexate was given,the lesion electrosurgical excision was conducted under hysteroscopy when β-HCG<1 000 mU/ml. Group B was inject-ed methotrexate 50 mg/m2 into muscle,once a week. After 1 week,if β-HCG was decreased less than or equal to 50%,the patient was additionally injected methotrexate;and if the β-HCG was decreased more than 50%,no more methotrexate was given,the le-sion electrosurgical excision was conducted under hysteroscopy when β-HCG<1 000 mU/ml. The clinic data was observed,includ-ing success rate,β-HCG before and 4,7,10 and 14 d after treatment and the mass diameter of CSP before and 7 and 14 d after treatment in 2 groups. The incidence of adverse reactions was recorded. RESULTS:There were no significant differences in the suc-cess rate,mass diameter of CSP before and after treatment between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,the β-HCG in 2 groups was significantly lower than before,14 d<10 d<7 d<4 d,and group A was lower than group B,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in group A was significantly lower than group B,the difference was statis-tically significant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Methotrexate with different methods of administrations combined with hysteroscopy has good efficacy in the treatment of CSP,however,the safety of intracapsular injection is better than intramuscular injection.

OBJECTIVETo study the influence of the different combinations of the main active parts in Yangyintongnao granule on the pharmacokinetics parameters of the two active components--ligustrazine and puerarin using the method of total amount statistic moment for pharmacokinetics.
METHODCombinations were formed according to the dosages of the four active parts (alkaloid, flavone, saponin, naphtha) by orthogonal experiment L9 (3(4)). Blood concentrations of ligustrazine and puerarin were determinated by HPLC at different time. Zero rank moment (AUC) and one rank moment (MRT, mean residence time) of ligustrazine and puerarin have been worked out to calculate the total amount statistic moment parameters was analyzed of Yangyintongnao granule by the method of the total amount statistic moment. The influence of different compatibilities on the pharmacokinetics parameters was analyzed by orthogonal test.
RESULTFlavone has the strongest effect than saponin on the total AUC. Ligustrazine has the strongest effect on the total MRT. Saponin has little effect on the two parameters, but naphtha has more effect on both of them. It indicates that naphtha may promote metabolism of ligustrazine and puerarin in rat.
CONCLUSIONTotal amount statistic moment parameters can be used to guide for compatibilities of TCM.

Chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) is a common and intractable disease in the digestive system characterized by the reduction or disappearance of gastric mucosal glands. The intestinal metaplasia or dysplasia in CAG is called precancerous lesion, which greatly increases the risk of cancerization. Dysactivation of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammatory corpuscles can release a large number of inflammatory factors, induce inflammatory cascade reactions, and participate in the process of many diseases. As reported, the dysactivation of NLRP3 inflammatory corpuscles can cause long-term chronic inflammatory infiltration of gastric mucosa and induce the development of CAG. Mitochondrial dysfunction plays an important role in the activation of NLRP3 inflammatory corpuscles. The accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by mitochondrial dysfunction is the key to activating NLRP3 inflammatory corpuscles. Professor LIU Youzhang put forward the theory of "spleen-mitochondrion correlation", which holds that the spleen mainly transports water and grains, generates qi and blood, transports nutrients to the whole body, and supplies energy and materials needed by the body. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) generated by mitochondria through the circulation of tricarboxylic acid is the main energy source of the human body. The view that both of them serve as human energy processing plants coincides in terms of physiology. Pathologically, spleen deficiency is associated with mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation dysfunction. Pathological products such as dampness, turbidity, phlegm, and blood stasis due to failure in transportation because of spleen deficiency are consistent with metabolites generated by mitochondrial dysfunction. Based on the theory of "spleen-mitochondrion correlation", this study discussed the pathogenesis of CAG in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), analyzed the relationship between NLRP3 inflammatory corpuscles and the pathogenesis of CAG, and proposed that the activation of NLRP3 inflammatory corpuscles by mitochondrial dysfunction was the modern biological basis of the pathogenesis of spleen deficiency in CAG. The spleen-strengthening method may be related to improving the mitochondrial function and inflammatory response of patients with CAG and alleviating the damage of gastric mucosa, providing a new idea for TCM in the prevention and treatment of CAG.
