Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) compound in treating pulmonary nodules, providing evidence-based medical evidence for TCM intervention in pulmonary nodules. Methods Computer search of PubMed, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and SinoMed was conducted to select randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of TCM compound intervention in pulmonary nodules, with the retrieval time from the inception to November 29, 2023. The Cochrane bias risk assessment tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies, and Review Manager 5.4 was used for Meta-analysis. Results A total of 18 RCTs were included, covering 8 provinces across the country, with a total sample size of 1301 patients. The TCM compounds used in the included studies all incorporated the method of dissolving phlegm and dissipating nodules. There was a high risk of bias uncertainty in the included studies. Meta-analysis results suggested that TCM compound could significantly reduce the diameter of pulmonary nodules [MD=−1.41, 95%CI (−1.70, −1.13), P<0.001], decrease the number of nodules [MD=−0.37, 95%CI (−0.73, −0.01), P=0.05], alleviate clinical symptoms [MD=−4.84, 95%CI (−6.04, −3.64), P<0.001], and improve lung function [forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), MD=0.55, 95%CI (0.09, 1.01), P=0.02; FEV1/forced vital capacity, MD=6.12, 95%CI (4.47, 7.78), P<0.001]. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the probability of malignancy between the experimental group and the control group [MD=−0.01, 95%CI (−0.01, 0.00), P=0.09]. Conclusion TCM compound can significantly reduce the diameter of pulmonary nodules, decrease the number of nodules, alleviate clinical symptoms, and improve lung function, but future multicenter, large-sample, high-quality RCTs are still needed to further explore and verify this conclusion.

Objective:To analyze the effects of parenting care map of premature infants on parenting competence and parenting stress of primipara, with a view to providing a theoretical basis for the development, implementation and modification of clinical interventions.Methods:Convenient sampling method was used to select primigravid women who gave birth in Lishui Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2023 to January 2024 for randomized controlled study, which was divided into the observation group and the control group according to the random number table. The control group received routine nursing, and the observation group guided the parents of premature infants to draw the child care map together on the basis of the control group. The scores of Chinese version of parenting sense of competence scale ( C-PSOC ) and Chinese version of Simplified Parenting Stress Index ( PSI-SF ) before and after intervention were compared.Results:A total of 120 cases of primiparous women who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled, 60 cases in the control group and 60 cases in the observation group. The age of the control group was (26.25 ± 3.93) years, and the age of the observation group was (25.86 ± 4.22) years. Before the intervention, the difference between the C-PSOC dimension scores and total scores, PSI-SF dimension scores and total scores of the 2 groups was not statistically significant (all P>0.05). After the intervention, the maternal C-PSOC efficacy, satisfaction dimension scores and total scores of primiparous women in the observation group were (32.05 ± 6.27), (40.29 ± 8.19), and (72.23 ± 9.39) points, respectively, which were higher than those of the control group, which were (28.46 ± 6.47), (37.08 ± 8.06), and (65.53 ± 10.24) points, and the differences between the 2 groups were all statistically significant ( t = 3.09, 2.16, 3.74, all P<0.05). After the intervention, the PSI-SF scores and total scores of primiparous women in the observation group on the dimensions of parental distress, personal interaction disorder, and difficult child were (24.43 ± 5.44), (27.51 ± 6.53), (29.47 ± 5.82), and (81.54 ± 10.38) points, respectively, which were lower than those of the control group (28.57 ± 5.52), (30.19 ± 7.02), (32.78 ± 5.37), and (90.97 ± 10.12) points, and the differences between the 2 groups were all statistically significant ( t = 4.41, 2.17, 3.23, 5.04, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Premature child care map can effectively improve the parenting sense of competence of primiparas and reduce their parenting pressure. It is a convenient and effective nursing intervention tool.

Objective:To explore the effect of Shenxianling granules on the pharmacokinetics of ondansetron. Methods:A method for detecting the plasma concentration of ondansetron using highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was established. The reliability of the method was validated through specificity, linear relationship, precision, stability, repeated experiments, and sample recovery rate testing. Thirty six healthy male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups, with 18 rabbits in each group. Rabbits in the single ondansetron group (single drug group) received intravenous injection of ondansetron 0.92 mg/kg through the ear vein. Rabbits in the Shenxianling granules combined with ondansetron group (combination drug group) were firstly given 575 mg/kg of Shenxianling granules by gavage continuously for 10 days, and on the morning of the 11th day, ondansetron 0.92 mg/kg was intravenously injected. Blood samples were collected before administration and at 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours and 24 hours after administration of ondansetron. The blood concentration of ondansetron was detected using HPLC method and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculate. Results:Two New Zealand rabbits in the combination drug group developed agitation and cough, and then died on the second and fifth day of gavage, respectively. Therefore a total of 18 and 16 rabbits in the single drug group and the combination drug group completed the experiment, respectively. After ondansetron administration, the plasma concentration of ondansetron increased rapidly in the single drug group and remained at low levels in the combination drug group. From 5 minutes to 10 hours after administration, the plasma concentration of ondansetron at the 13 blood sampling time points in the combination drug group was significantly lower than that in the single drug group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Compared with the single drug group, the plasma clearance half-life of ondansetron in the combination drug group was significantly prolonged, the peak time, peak concentration, concentration at the last time and area under the curve (AUC) were all significantly reduced, and the percen- tage of residual or extrapolated area to the overall AUC, apparent volume of distribution, and clearance/bioavailability ratio were significantly increased; the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Conclusions:There is a significant interaction between Shenxianling granules and ondansetron, leading to a decreased plasma concentration of ondansetron. The mechanism may be related to Shenxianling granules altering the tissue distribution of ondansetron within the body.
