ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of Chinese medicinal injection (CMI) in the treatment of unstable angina pectoris (UAP). MethodEight databases, i.e., China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),VIP,Wanfang Data,CBM,PubMed,EMBASE,The Cochrane Library,and Web of Science were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) of conventional treatment combined with CMI (treatment group) versus conventional treatment (CT)(control group)in the treatment of UAP published from database inception to March 31th 2021. Stata 16.0 was used for network Meta-analysis. ResultThirty-nine RCT involving 3 407 patients were included. As revealed by the results of network Meta-analysis, in terms of the total effective rate in angina pectoris improvement, the therapeutic protocols were ranked as Tanreqing injection(TRQI)+CT>Xiangdan injection(XDI)+CT>Ciwujia injection(CWJI)+CT=Shengmai injection(SMI)+CT>Xuesaitong injection(XSTS)+CT>Breviscapine injection(BI)+CT>Shuxuetong injection(SXTI)+CT>Kudiezi injection(KDZI)+CT>Shuxuening injection(SXNI)+CT>Danshen injection (DSI)+CT>Guanxinning injection(GXNI)+CT>Dengzhanxixin injection(DZXXI)+CT>Xueshuantong injection(XSTI)+CT>Gualoupi injection(GLPI)+CT>CT;for the total effective rate in ECG improvement, SXTI+CT>XDI+CT>TRQI+CT>CWJI+CT>XSTI+CT>BI+CT>XSTI+CT>SXNI+CT>GXNI+CT>KDZI+CT>DZXXI+CT>GLPI+CT>CT>SMI+CT;for the adverse reactions, DZXXI+CT>XDI+CT>DSI+CT>BI+CT>SMI+CT>SXNI+CT>CT>GLPI+CT>GXNI+CT>SXTI+CT>KDZI+CT>CWJI+CT;for the reduction of fibrinogen (FIB), BI+CT>SXTI+CT>XSTI+CT>CT>KDZI+CT;for the reduction of C-reactive protein (CRP), DSI+CT>DZXXI+CT>XSTI+CT>CT;for the reduction of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), SXNI+CT>KDZI+CT>SXTI+CT>DZXXI+CT>GLPI+CT>TRQI+CT>XSTI+CT>CT. The results of subgroup analyses were consistent with those of the overall Meta-analysis. ConclusionCMI combined with CT can improve angina pectoris and ECG,reduce adverse reactions,and also improve FIB,CRP,and hs-CRP to varying degrees. However,due to the differences in the quality and quantity of CMIs in RCTs,clinical application should be performed based on the specific conditions.

OBJECTIVES:
To study the survival rate and the incidence of complications of very preterm infants and the factors influencing the survival rate and the incidence of complications.
METHODS:
The medical data of the very preterm infants with a gestational age of <32 weeks and who were admitted to the Department of Neonatology in 11 hospitals of Jiangsu Province in China from January 2018 to December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Their survival rate and the incidence of serious complications were analyzed. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the risk factors for death and serious complications in very preterm infants.
RESULTS:
A total of 2 339 very preterm infants were enrolled, among whom 2 010 (85.93%) survived and 1 507 (64.43%) survived without serious complications. The groups with a gestational age of 22-25
CONCLUSIONS
The survival rate is closely associated with gestational age in very preterm infants. A low 1-minute Apgar score (≤3) may increase the risk of death in very preterm infants, while high gestational age, high birth weight, and prenatal use of glucocorticoids are associated with the reduced risk of death. A low 5-minute Apgar score (≤3) and maternal chorioamnionitis may increase the risk of serious complications in these infants, while high gestational age and high birth weight may reduce the risk of serious complications.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a common clinical chronic respiratory disease, has a long course and is intractable. It is closely related to many factors, such as immune imbalance. Helper T cell 17 (Th17), an immune-promoting cell, and regulatory T cell (Treg), an immunosuppressive cell, maintain the balance of the immune microenvironment together. In the course of COPD, the proportion of Th17 cells usually increases, while the proportion of Tregs that inhibit Th17 activity decreases. Their coordination and balance are critical in the inflammatory and immune processes of COPD. At present, COPD is mainly treated with nasal inhalation preparations and oral drugs by western medicine. In spite of a certain therapeutic effect, side effects of drugs and heavy economic burden are becoming increasingly prominent. Modern research shows that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has the characteristics of few side effects, stable curative effect, and multi-target regulation, and it is advantageous and promising in the prevention and treatment of COPD. In recent years, a large number of TCM clinical and experimental trials on the intervention of Th17/Treg balance in COPD have been launched. Substantial pieces of evidence confirm that the intervention of Th17/Treg balance is an important potential target of TCM in the treatment of COPD. This study reviewed the previous research on the intervention effect of single Chinese medicine, effective components of Chinese medicine, and Chinese medicinal compound on Th17/Treg balance in COPD to comprehensively reveal the potential target of Th17/Treg balance in COPD for clinicians and scientific researchers, promote relevant research, and provide references for the rational application of TCM in the prevention and treatment of COPD.
