ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Qiaoqi Formula （翘芪组方） for mild influenza. MethodsA randomized controlled study was designed， recruiting 74 patients with mild influenza， who were randomly divided into trial group and control group. The trial group took Qiaoqi Formula orally， 40ml each time， twice a day； the control group took Lianhua Qingwen Capsules （连花清瘟胶囊） orally， 1.4 g each time， three times a day. Both groups were treated for 3 consecutive days and follow-up for 4 consecutive days after treatment. The time for fever reduction including onset of fever reduction， complete fever reduction time， fever reduction rates at 24， 48 and 72 hours， improvement of influenza symptoms， total traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score， and safety indicators in two groups after treatment were recorded. ResultsSixty-five patients were ultimately included， including 36 in the trial group and 29 in the control group. Onset time of fever reduction in the trial group was （15.49±23.47） h， the complete fever reduction time （21.37±30.06）h， and the 24 h， 48 h， 72 h， fever reduction rate was 77.14%， 88.57%， 91.42% respectively. The above indicators of the control group showed as （17.58±20.38）h， （24.30±21.87）h， 61.29%， 90.32%， 96.77% respectively， with no statistically significant differences （P＞0.05）. On the 7th day after treatment， the total score of TCM syndromes in trial group and control group decreased compared to those before treatment （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in the cure rate， significant effective rate， effective rate， and total effective rate of TCM syndromes between groups （P＞0.05）. On the 4th day， the lymphocyte ratio of patients in the control group was higher than before treatment， while alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， urea， and creatinine of both groups before and after treatment were within the normal range. The main adverse reactions in both groups were mild headache and dizziness， and no serious adverse reactions observed. ConclusionThe therapeutic effect of Qiaoqi Formula in treating mild influenza is equivalent to Lianhua Qingwen Capsules， which can shorten the fever reduction time， improve clinical symptoms， and no adverse events observed during the study.

Objective To explore the value of dynamic MRI imaging in investigate the morphologic and dynamic factors of low anterior resection syndrome(LARS)after anal preservation surgery in patients with low rectal cancer.Methods Thirty-five patients who developed LARS after anal preservation surgery for low rectal cancer were prospectively collected.Subjects were underwent routine MRI and dynamic MRI of pelvis 1 week before and 3 months after surgery respectively.Routine MRI was used as the resting phase,and dynamic MRI was used to obtain the rapture phase and forceful phase.Parameters such as anal rectus angle(ARA),the length of the line connecting lower edge of pubic symphysis to the posterior wall attachment point of puborectal muscle(H-line),the vertical length from posterior wall attachment point of puborectal muscle to pubococcygeal line(M-line),thickness of puborectal muscle,and thickness of internal and external anal sphincter were measured at the three time phases.The differences between preoperative and postoperative,and moderate and severe LARS patients were compared by measuring relevant indicators.Results The preoperative and postoperative ARA,H-line length and M-line length of LARS patients were the smallest in the rapture phase,the largest in the forceful phase,and the middle in the resting phase.The postoperative thickness of puborectalis muscle and internal and external anal sphincter were the largest in the rapture phase,the smallest in the forceful phase,and the middle in the resting phase.There were significant differences between the three phases(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences between the three phases of postoperative puborectalis muscle thickness and internal and external sphincter thickness(P＞0.05).The postoperative ARA was greater than preoperative ARA in LARS patients,and the thickness of puborectalis muscle,the internal anal sphincter(resting phase and rapture phase),and the external anal sphincter were smaller than preoperative ARA,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The ARA in resting phase and rapture phase was greater in patients with severe LARS than that of patients with mild LARS,and the thickness of internal anal sphincter in resting phase was less in patients with severe LARS than that of patients with mild LARS(P＜0.05).However,the differences between the other indicators were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Dynamic MRI examination technology combines dynamic images with quantitative indicators can be used as an important evaluation basis for LARS patients.
