Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Qingfei-Jiedu decoction in the treatment of Acne. Methods A total of 93 female patients with acne were randomly divided into 3 groups according to random number table, 31 in each group. The observation group took the oral Qingfei-Jiedu decoction, and the Chinese medicine control group took the oral tanshinone capsule, and the western medicine control group took the oral acetic acid ring propyl alcohol progesterone. All 3 groups were treated for 4 weeks. The levels of serum dihydro (DHT), IL-6 and IL-8 were measured by ELISA. The changes of the lesions before and after treatment were observed and the adverse events were recorded during the treatment. The clinical effect was evaluated. Results After treatment, the serum DHT (56.94 ± 15.74 pg/ml vs. 74.48 ± 18.53 pg/ml, t=2.089), IL-6 (22.84 ± 11.77 pg/ml vs. 30.37 ± 14.50 pg/ml, t=2.135), IL-8 (22.64 ± 7.38 pg/ml vs. 29.54 ± 9.65 pg/ml, t=2.057) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the Chinese medicine control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the disappearance rate of skin lesions (65.4% ± 15.0% vs. 44.7% ± 12.9%, 42.7% ± 13.6%, F=6.862) and comprehensive syndrome effective rate (57.2% ± 12.6% vs. 46.3% ± 12.8%, 44.8% ± 11.7%, F=5.322) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the other two control groups (P<0.05). The observation group and the traditional Chinese medicine control group did not have adverse events, but the western medicine control group showed one case nausea. Conclusions The Qingfei-Jiedu decoction can reduce the level of serum DHT, IL-6 and IL-8 in female patients with acne vulgaris, and improve the skin lesion disappearance rates and comprehensive syndrome rates.

Objective:To evaluate the rehabilitation efficacy of early mobilization based on collaboration care model for patients with laparoscopic colorectal surgery.Methods:Cluster sampling method was used in the department to recruit colorectal cancer patients with laparoscopic surgery. The control group (49 cases) received routine perioperative care and exercise, and the intervention group (47 cases) received the coordinated early mobilization combined with routine perioperative care and exercise, from January to March 2019. Primary outcome were health status and the proportion of patients returning to preoperative functional walking capacity (6-min walk test) at 4 weeks after surgery. The in-hospital mobilization (time out-of-bed), time to achieve discharge criteria, time to recover gastrointestinal function and complication rate were explored.Results:In intervention group,89.4%(42/47) of patients achieved mobilization target on 4 days after surgery compared with 42.6%(20/47) on the day of surgery. Time out of bed were greater in the intervention group compared with the control group, and there were differences between the two groups( Z values were -8.437--7.381, P<0.01). Time to recover gastrointestinal function and the recovery of energy on 3 days after surgery were (58.74±17.41) h, (59.02±9.46) points in the observation group, and (71.82±21.53) h, (62.61±7.68) points in the control group, and there were significant differences between the two groups ( t values were -3.263, -2.046, P<0.05). But other outcome measures were not different between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:For colorectal laparoscopic surgery patients, the coordinated early mobilization improved the adherence to ambulation, in-hospital mobilization, time to recover gastrointestinal function and recovery of energy to promote rehabilitation.
