The report quality of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of moxibustion for knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in China was evaluated by Consolidated Standards for Reporting of Trials (CONSORT) and Standards for Reporting Interventions in Controlled Trials of Moxibustion (STRICTOM). Computer and manual retrieval was used. Four databases of China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKD, China Biomedicine (CBM), VIP and WNFANG were searched in combination with manual retrieval for relevant journals to screen the literature that: met the inclusive criteria, and CONSORT and STRICTOM were used to assess the report quality. A total of 52 RCTs were included. It was found that unclear description of random methods, low use of blind methods, no allocation concealment, no sample size calculation, no intention-to-treat analysis,inadequate report of moxibustion details and no mention of practitioners background existed in the majority of the RCTs. Although the quality of RCTs of moxibustion for KOA was generally low, reducing the reliability and homogeneous comparability of the reports ,the quality of heat-sensitive moxibustion RCTs was high. It was believed that in order to improve the reliability and quality of RCTs of moxibustion, CONSORT and STRICTOM should be introduced into the RCT design of moxibustion and be strictly performed.

Conclusion Based on the present evidences,the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion is definitely beneficial in acne (cystic type),chronic urticaria,and neurodermatitis (localized); the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion is likely to be beneficial in chloasma,clavus,and pruritus; and the effect of acupuncture-moxibustion is possibly beneficial in alopecia areata,eczema,psoriasis,vitiligo,and bedsore.

Objective: To establish a method for the determination of atractylenolide Ⅰ in Atractylodes macrocephala by HPCE. Methods:The separation conditions of HPCE were as follows:50 mmol·L-1 borate buffer was used as the running buffer, the UV de-tection was set at 210 nm, the separation voltage was 20 kV, the column temperature was 25℃ and the pressure injection was 50 mbar × 5 sec. Results:The lower detection limit was 0. 5 μg·ml-1 . The concentration of atractylenolide Ⅰ showed a linear plot within the range of 2-100 μg·ml-1(r=0. 996 0). The average recovery was 97. 1%, and the intra-and inter-day RSD was 1. 3% and 2. 5%, respectively. Conclusion:The established method is simple, sensitive and economic. The method is suitable for the quality control of atractylodes macrocephala.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of urapidil combined with recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide(rhBNP)in the treatment of high blood pressure complicated with acute heart failure.Methods Sixty patients with high blood pressure(HBP)and acute heart failure(AHF)were collected from May 2022 to December 2023 in the inpatient department of Yingtan People's Hospital were to conduct retrospective analysis.They were divided into two groups according to different clinical drugs,with 30 cases in each group.The control group received conventional drugs(amlodipine besylate+spirolactone)+intravenous furosemide infusion+administer urapidil intravenously,the experimental group was additionally given rhBNP.Both groups received treatment for 7 days in the hospital.Blood pressure,heart rate,N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),left heart function changes and adverse reactions during treatment were compared in two groups.Results After the treatment of those patients,the total effective rate and left ventricular ejection fraction of experimental group were higher than those of control group(P＜0.05).The changes of heart rate,NT-proBNP,left ventricular end-systolic diameter,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and blood pressure in experimental group were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).Two groups were no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse drug reactions(P＞0.05).Conclusion Urapidil and rhBNP is obviously superior to urapidil alone in the treatment of HBP complicated with AHF,and can obviously reduce blood pressure and heart rate,improve cardiacfunction,and is safe in clinical application.

Objective To investigate the relation between the characteristics of body fat distribution and the cardiovascular risk factors in some patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)in Xinjiang region.Methods The percentage of body fat (PBF)and visceral fat area(VA)were determined in 155 cases of T2DM by using the Inbody 720 body composition analyzer.At the same time triglycerides(TG),total cholesterol(TC),high density lipoprotein(HDL-C),low density lipoprotein(LDL-C),blood pressure(BP), glycosylated hemoglobin HbA1c,body weight(W),body height,waist circumference ratio(WC)and hip circumference(HC)were also determined.The body mass index(BMI)and the waist to hip ratio was calculated.Results In both men and women,BMI in the subjects with visceral fat obesity(VFO)was higher than that with subcutaneous fat obesity(SFO).In males,TG in VFO was signif-icantly higher than that in SFO.PBF,TC and LDL-C in the female T2DM patients were significantly higher than those in the male T2DM patients.VA and PBF in the minority male patients were significantly higher than those in the Han nationality male patients (P <0.05).After correcting the age,course of disease and BMI,WHR in the female patients was positively correlated with DBP and PBF was positively correlated with LDL-C.In the male patients,there were correlations between BMI with SBP,between VA with DBP,and between VA with PBF and HDL-C;in the female patients,there were correlations between BMI with SBP and be-tween WHR with DBP.Conclusion The body fat distribution in the patients with T2DM in Xinjiang region is dominated by VFO. The cardiovascular risk factors are not only associated with the increase of body fat content,but more closely associated with VFO, moreover the differences in genders and nationalities exist.
