Objective To analyze the relationship of Qi and blood deficiency syndrome's principal components of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and TCM syndrome differentiation. Methods Syndrome principal components of 25 CFS Qi deficiency patients and 23 CFS blood deficiency patients were researched and combined with TCM syndrome differentiation, then their relationship were analyzed. Results There was significantly positive relationship between CFS Qi deficiency syndrome principal component 1 and CFS Qi deficiency syndrome. And there were significantly positive relationships between CFS blood deficiency syndrome principal component l, 2 and CFS blood deficiency syndrome. Conclusion The CFS Qi deficiency syndrome and blood deficiency syndrome's principal components were accord with TCM syndrome differentiation. We could improve the TCM syndrome differentiation's impersonality and nicety, and predigest TCM diagnosis program if we combined two analysis ways.

Objective To study the intervention of Daotan Decoction to the expression of ICAM-1 in cerebrovascular endothelial cells. Methods Cerebrovascular endothelial cells were cultured to observed the influence of ICAM-1 expression,which was induced by TNF-?,by the way of immunocytochemistry methods. Results Compared with control group,the expression of ICAM-1 in model group was time-dependent (P

Objective To compare the sleep quality of cerebral infarction patients with different types in sub-acute phase. Method The patients with cerebral infarction targeted to the inclusion criteria were divided into the phlegm-heat group and non-phlegm-heat group according to the syndrome differentiation of TCM. After routine treatment of western medicine for 4 weeks, the sleep quality of patients were evaluated with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) during the sub-acute phase. Result The scores of subjective sleep quality, sleep duration, sleep efficiency and overall PSQI score in the phlegm-heat group were obviously higher than that in the non-phlegm-heat group (P

Objective To observe the survival quality of cerebral infarction patients in sub-acute seizure phase, who were in different TCM syndrome types. Methods The patients with cerebral infarction in acute seizure phase targeted to the inclusion criteria were divided into the heat group and non-heat group by TCM syndrome differentiation. After 4 weeks of routine treatment with western medicine, the survival quality of patients was evaluated with Health Questionnaire Short Form-36 (SF-36). Results In all dimensions of SF-36, the scores of social function, mental health, role-emotional dimensions in the heat group were obviously lower than those in the non-heat group (P

Objective To study the level of serum ICAM-1, VCAM-1, E-selectin, P-selectin, IL-6 and CRP in different Chinese medicine syndrome patients with carotid artery atherosclerosis. Methods Blood sample were collected from 176 patients with carotid artery atherosclerosis. The concentration of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, E-selectin, P-selectin, IL-6 and CRP were tested by means of ELISA. The subjects were divided into 3 groups according to the Chinese medicine syndrome, and the concentrations of inflammatory factors were compared among the 3 groups. Results Compared with control group, the level of inflammatory factors in the patients with carotid atherosclerosis was higher, and the levels of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in phlegm group were higher than blood stasis group and marrow deficiency group (P

Objective To compare the sleep quality and traditional Chinese medical (TCM) syndrome between men and women with cerebral infarction. Method The patients with cerebral infarction enrolled were divided into men patients group and women patients group. After routine treatment of western medicine for 2 weeks, the sleep quality of patients were evaluated with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the TCM syndrome types were determined by the Diagnostic Criteria of Syndrome Differentiation of Stroke. Result The subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, use of sleep medication, day-time dysfunction and the overall PSQI scores were higher in the women patients group than that in the men patients group (P

Objective To analyse the TCM syndrome of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients by discriminative analysis. Methods 237 CFS patients were collected to made a stepwise discriminative analysis of symptom variables, basing on their TCM syndromes. Results 10 variables were obtained from symptoms by the way of stepwise discriminative analysis (P

Objective To analyse the relationship of blood deficiency syndrome’s principal components of chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and mental state and quality of life. Methods 23 cases of CFS blood deficiency syndrome were collected to pick up principal components, and combined with mental state (SCL-90) and quality of life (SF-36). Then, the relationship was analyzed. Results There was significant relationship between CFS blood syndrome principal component 1 and GH, VT and BP in SF-36. And there was significant relationship between CFS blood syndrome principal component 2 and patients’ somatization, obsessive compulsive, interpersonal sensitive, depression, anxiety, hostility and paranoid in SCL-90, and between principal component 1 and somatization. Conclusion There were two principal components in CFS blood deficiency syndrome, one influenced patients’ quality of life, the other influenced their mental state.

For all the time the book Symptomatic Figures of Lip and Tongue(Chunshe Zhenghou Tu)was described as written by Li Jun of Qing dynasty. We made studies on historical records on Li Jun and the features and contents of this book, and proved that Symptomatic Figures of Lip and Tongue was not written by him, but a Chinese medical book written by Japanese.

Objective To investigate the relationship between carotid atherosclerosis (CAS) and cognitive impairment, stroke-specific quality of life of patients with cerebral infarction. Methods Patients enrolled were divided into mild-to-moderate CAS group and severe CAS group after carotid ultrasound. They were assessed with Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) Version 3.0. Results The scores of attention/calculation, comprehension, and total of MMSE, the mobile ability and hand function dimensions of SIS were all lower in severe CAS group than in mild-to-moderate CAS group (P<0.05). Conclusion Carotid atherosclerosis may further impair the cognitive function and quality of life of cerebral infarction patients.
